    3/4" is 19.05mm. I couldn't find any rocker switches with exactly that hole size, but here are 11 choices that use 18mm and 18.2mm holes. All are secured with a back-side nut, so the difference in hole size shouldn't be critical. If you have a row of switches, just use a straight edge to line them up as you tighten each nut.

    The E-Switch RR3130 Series look like a good match for what you have, but with slightly smaller wire lugs. They use a small alignment keyway that has a 1.1mm radius, so the fit should actually be really close. Click the little PDF document symbol just to the left of the photos to see the datasheet.

    Wings went on last week and I got a couple boxes this week! Freight was 895! Wow.
    Prop is on the way and I'm all paid up on this build I think. Only thing left to buy is the miscellaneous stuff....you know the stuff that just keeps coming up. HaHa

    I have been watching your youtube channel from the beginning. Really enjoy it. What engine will you go with. I don't remember if you mentioned it before.

    Had a box in the shop when I got in this evening. Opened it up and was surprised to see the interior. It wasn't due for another month or so. Maybe things are getting more back to normal from this covid deal. I just had to put the seat pan in and sit in those comfy seats!

    Question me an answer Harlan..... When you did your Laker leading edge, how many Hysol cartridges did you use to fasten it? I am thinking the gun is a better means to do that step and want to start getting stuff together. Did you use the 50ml cartridges?

    Thanks

    I didn't use the 50 ml for the leading edge.
    I used the cans that came with the build.
    I mixed and dispensed out of 60ml syringes from amazon.
    I really don't remember the amount at this time.
    It seems to me the 50 ml twin tubes are a more runny consistence than the big cans were and a stiff mix works better for the leading edge IMO.
