Well, I'm working on getting all of the aluminum on the frame, and I've run out of Clecos. Does anyone have some I can buy/borrow/rent? Thanks!

(I'm also posting this on the other forum, fyi)

I bought a bunch at Summit when I started my build.
I use both 1/8 and 3/16.

If you start with 50 or even 25 you'll have ample. Just don't cleco every hole you drill. Placing a cleco in every hole just consumes time and there's really no need to.

Mike Everson from the forum sells them on his website also.

I agree with this. I think I bought a total of 20-25 of them. For a 3/16" hole, I used a 1/8" clecko and a backing washer.
