This video takes you through the basic theory of bending a piece of Aircraft Aluminum over ninety degrees. This presentation is a "Digital Project" in the PID 3240 program, at Vancouver Community College.
After thirty years of messing with aircraft, I have yet to come across a real world problem that required me to figure out bend allowance and set back. Bend the thing, then trim it! I think it was invented by the FAA just to be obnoxious.
@@MadDeuceJuice everyone’s a CRITIC 🙄 😂JK You’re prolly correct though. As a pilot I need parameters and the same is true being a mechanic. I’d rather know how than not to know how. Also I’m a 4 year A&P apprentice who just got his 8610-2 and I need to know for my test. THANKS FOR POSTING THIS ! Liked and subbed !
Thank you! this explanation really simplified what I could not understand in the class. I have to start a four sided box tomorrow out of one sheet of metal. Will I have to take each total from the Developed Length calculation and multiply by 4 to have enough material for all four sides??????? Thanks for any help you can provide
great video. Really simplified the bending layout calculations for me. But what i cant find anywhere is how do you or how do you determine which side to measure the sight line from or is it just which side do you prefer
I was hoping you would have posted more. Trying to prepare for my practical and its frustrating when you can't actually practice any of the hands on stuff.
this way of explaining was better than my training we kept asking what is set back and the instructor at that time could not explain in a way that we as a student understood and he would call the class hackers which we replied with we are as good as our instructor so if we are hackers our instructor is a better hacker because he trained us
Here, I'll fix it for you: "thiswayofexplainingwasbetterthanmytrainingwekeptaskingwhatissetbackandtheinstructoratthattimecouldnotexplaininawaythatweasastudentunderstoodandhewouldcalltheclasshackerswhichwerepliedwithweareasgoodasourinstructorsoifwearehackersourinstructorisabetterhackerbecausehetrainedus"
You’ve mentioned grain a few times but not how to bend in relationship to the grain, ie across or with.
Easier to follow than the AC65-15A. thanks

After thirty years you probably wasted several metric tonnes of metal with your technique
@@MadDeuceJuice Several cubic inches, yes. The upside is perfectly fitting parts.

God bless you for this information, my instructor isn’t good at teaching. He gets mad too whenever asked a question...
thank you i have my aircraft sheet metal test this morning. please explain the K factor in your next class
It's been 9 yrs since your comment.... How are you now ?
studying for airframe right now this is the PERFECT refresher! so informative and helped me jog my memory! great video
Same

Please America, start using the metric system. It's way easier.

No
Thank you for this video. It helped me a lot. :)
This is a great well presented presentation on the subject of sheet metal bending.
Thank you for this video it helped me alot :)
To much gibberish with crayons
This really helped a lot studying for my practical. Thanks!
I love this video
God bless you
❤
great video. Really simplified the bending layout calculations for me. But what i cant find anywhere is how do you or how do you determine which side to measure the sight line from or is it just which side do you prefer
Cant finds either
you cant bend heat treated aluminum it will crack
Nice video very helpful and easy to understand
Thank you for this video ! Gonna watch it again and again thank you very much for posting !
This is a great video! thanks so much for the in depth info.
Thanks! I haven't done this in 4 years, and just got hired lol.
Thank you very much for such amazing information you have shared, it is really helpful...
I'm waiting for more video :)
I was hoping you would have posted more. Trying to prepare for my practical and its frustrating when you can't actually practice any of the hands on stuff.
why isn't the bend allowance and your sight line distance not the same thing??
titays
you look like a fabian gavin
Thanks for the simple explanation. Very easy to follow.
Who else is trying to understand this bull for Paul C class?
4:59 don't you mean 5.835? That's what it says on the diagram
Good catch lol
Best vid I’ve seen for this! Thansk

Very helpful! Prepared for tomorrow
finally found clean concept
very helpful and well done,
Well taught
you need to have it annealed first or buy it in {O} condition in order to bend it.
You never bent a piece of metal in your life lol
