A new skid shoe for the Aeronca C3

The old skid shoe is badly worn, I make a new one from 3/16" 4130 steel.
Remember, Starrett hacksaw blades are good!

Brought some Starrett blades👍

You might facilitate the cutting by drilling small holes just outside the margins,

That’s good but generally means more filing. Starrett hacksaw blades are excellent!
