An Adel clamp attached to the stud secures the hydraulic lines in my LNC2. The Click-bonds are pricey if you buy them from Aircraft Spruce, but direct from the factory they're only about $3 each. - Rob Wolf [I did something similar, I call it my poor-man's Click-Bond... I locate the adel clamp where I want it to go and spot drill into the interior skin through the mounting hole. After all the clamps have been located I remove the tubing and open up the holes with a 3/4" hole saw, being careful to only cut the inner skin. I remove the BID circle and core out the area plus ~1/8" under the edge and bed a hardware store bolt that has flats ground on the edges of its head into flox inside the skin. I put a 1-BID over it and let it cure. Voila... almost instant studs at a fraction of the cost of Click-Bonds. It actually goes a lot faster than you can tell about it.
