| pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Build | 16-Oct-19 03:21 |  | | Views : 251 | | Decided to add leading edge sub-ribs instead of sheeting the LE with 1/64" ply. I also decided to add Diagonal cross bracing rearward of the main spar. And again, radiused gusseting. Sometimes I wonder...this is supposed to be a "Quick" build. Sheesh. |

| pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Build | 16-Oct-19 03:10 |  | | Views : 286 | | Since the airfoil is not flat bottom, small tabs lift the ribs of the building surface to keep the oriented correctly. These tabs will be removed later. Notched LE and TE really help with this kind of technique. The top spar is not bonded at this time in lieu of adding the vertical grain shear webs. |
