No two sets of floorboards are exactly the same. Over the last 30, 40,
50, 60+ years, owners and prior owners have installed and uninstalled different
hardware and accessories and made modifications that affected their floors.
For this reason, each set of floorboards that are produced are custom made for a
specific plane.
Your existing floorboards are used to create a detailed CAD
drawing for each piece, including mounting holes and hardware attachment
points. The CAD drawings are then put on a CNC machine used to
precisely cut new
floorboards to within one hundredth of an inch.
The wood used is 5 ply, 6 mm (1/4") thick, furniture-grade Baltic
Birch. Free of knots and voids, this plywood is very dense and
strong yet light. The quality exceeds that originally used in our
planes.
Each sheet is hand-selected and coated with water-based polyurethane.
Each piece receives five coats. Each coat is thoroughly dried and sanded
before the next.
Existing metal hardware is cleaned and a new coat of Zinc Chromate is applied
before reattaching. All existing floating nuts, anchor nuts, tinnerman,
and clip nuts are replaced with new hardware. Anchor nuts are riveted in
place where necessary. Additionally, new screws and finish washers are
provided for attaching the new floorboards.
The floorboards are then sanded with 400, 800, and 1000 grit sandpaper before
receiving a final high-gloss polish with Carnauba wax.
Finally, a flame resistant, sound deadening/anti-vibration, foil-faced,
non-corrosive 50 mil adhesive is applied to the underside.
The new floorboards are then ready to be shipped.
