February 12, 2015 - Glue Center Wing Spar Together |
||||||
| Ready to start glueing the Center Wing spar together. Everything is ready to go. Nutplate backing strips are attached, gussets are cut, T-88 is mixed. | ||||||
 |
||||||
|
The spar ladders are jigged so they are a uniform eight inches wide. You can see two of the nutplate backing strips in place.
|
||||||
 |
||||||
| Working down the line, glueing one spacer and gussets at a time. | ||||||

| Glueing complete. Not the assembly just has to sit for 24 hours or so. | ||||||
 |
||||||
| It took about two hours to glue the spar together. But I have my iTunes playing while I work and it's easy work, so it isn't bad. | ||||||
