LASTWOODSMAN | SIG Customaire # FF-26 | Parked | 15-Jul-17 07:16 | | Views : 294 | TOP VIEW - I made two extra wing photocopies, and highlighted the ribs to glue, with blue color, and covered them with waxed paper, and "lined them up" with the plans. This was to set the ribs on, without sticking, when they dried in the first part of "double gluing". |
LASTWOODSMAN | SIG Customaire # FF-26 | Parked | 15-Jul-17 07:14 | | Views : 257 | SIG "Customaire" 22" free flight rubber - SIDEWAYS VIEW - The ribs are all in place (not glued yet), and are snug and flush, and braced up, and checked for easy removal for the first gluing of the "double gluing" procedure. The thin bracing planks for the tops of the ribs (to hold the rib bottoms flush to the building board), are cut out and ready to go. |

LASTWOODSMAN | SIG Customaire # FF-26 | Parked | 15-Jul-17 07:11 | | Views : 268 | I had forgotten - but now have put in - the small inside bracing planks for the LE and TE parts. Now, the LE and TE parts are braced into their location on both sides. In woodworking, "you can never have too many clamps!" (a wise man once said). All of this fussing should make the gluing operation very smooth and easy, hopefully! |
LASTWOODSMAN | SIG Customaire # FF-26 | Parked | 14-Jul-17 09:17 | | Views : 250 | The LE and TE are now held down flat to the board, with the tips of long thin planks, placed on top of the LE and TE, with these planks being pinned to the board. |
