John Hickson Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Is there such a thing as a control horn that's V shaped? I'm working on some gear doors and the only way I can think of to open them is a v shape. I have searched the web for pictures but all I can find are the usual shaped horns. Has anyone used something like this or know another word for them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greybeard Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Are you thinking of a bell-crank. In any case if you can't find what you whant why don't you make your own? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Hickson Posted December 15, 2012 Author Share Posted December 15, 2012 Hi GB A bit like a bell crank, ideally a hole in one end for a clevis and a plate at the other to mount to the door. It's weird that I can find them as there's a vid on utube and he used them for the same purpose. Maybe I will have to make something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
