David Duckett | 21-Oct-21 18:32 | Wing infill is 1/16' stock bottom, 3/32" top |
Don C | 22-Oct-21 10:59 | Why the difference? Or is it just what you had on hand? |
David Duckett | 22-Oct-21 17:23 | The framework is all 1/16" and the bottom of the wing is flat. Pieces cut for the bottom need to fit basically flat and as it's all flat, minimum sanding is required to smooth it all out. The top of the wing is curved so all pieces used need to be thick enough to handle the curve, The center of the infill piece should fit level with the top of the rib allowing enough wood that, when sanded, will completely fill the area. 3/32" stock works well giving you the comfort of knowing it's too high and can be easily sanded smooth. Occasionally thicker wood is used as required. |
