Default RE: Great Planes 40 Clipped Cub Kit Rebuild

Drilled out the sheared off wing mount dowel fore and aft and inserted a new one to test the fit. On the dowel that was unaffected.. i drilled into the front bulkhead and that came out well. Normally I elongate the hole a bit in the main bulkhead and then attach a doubler drilled to the correct sized hole and align the wing that way to get a perfect fit. Work issue now... so hope to expoxy in that new dowel...drill the second hole in the bulkehead and the wing mount will be good. Then back to pretty-ing up the forward section, adding windows, etc.
