Here I am bending the flap skin. Notice the 14 gauge metal "bent strip" that I am bending my skin around. This is a nice solution for coming up with the 1/8 inch radius without ruining someone's brake. The bent and un-bent flap skins. Here is a set of  hole flanging dies that a friend of mine made. (thanks Damian) On the left is a Wing Nose Rib (I need to post more photos of this stuff). See the nicely flanged hole!
