Scroll down and you'll find the plane plan you need. |
John M Oshust | 29-Jan-08 21:12 | Wood preservative zephyr....Thanks for the site, but at this stage the photos are not helpful. Just when you think you have enough reference phots new ones appear! |
wahdah3L | 03-Jul-08 03:26 | What you've done here is the right way, in fact. The sheet on the underside has to be angled off slightly for the corrugations to nest at the trailing edge. This way you keep your corrugations vertical, or nrarly so, only tipped in a little per the dihedral. If I can find this stock in the "scale" I need, this will be the way to finish ! |
