Note the broken section on the top of the fuselage on the bottom. Don't ever tell your wife that balsa wood is strong if she's never handled balsa wood before. |

| calavera | Dumas Kit #206, F-82 Twin Mustang | Build | 08-Feb-12 23:02 |  | | Views : 853 | | The rib R3's bottom spar slot is double wide, to hold the spar coming from the left tip of the wing and the spar coming from the center section side by side. The instructions say to glue down all ribs at this point, but I can't imagine that would be a good idea if it means also gluing the middle spar to R3. Should I just glue in the left spar and save the center spar for after angling the wing? |

| calavera | Dumas Kit #206, F-82 Twin Mustang | Build | 08-Feb-12 17:00 |  | | Views : 799 | | I broke this rib between the upper left and bottom slots while test fitting. I glued it back together with elmer's yellow... is it ok to use it or should I make a replacement with this as the template? |
