I have milled the top (actually the side) of the spar joiner pieces so that they are absolutely flat and consistent in thickness, they have now a thickness at about 1/8". A note of warning about handling carbon fiber parts like this; the edges are often razor sharp and the fibers can bury them self deep in to your hands so no quick and careless movements along the edges, using some kind of gloves might be a good idea.
Now I am basically ready with all the materials and parts for my wing spar and I will take a little break.
Next will be to sand the surface of the sparcaps to remove the mold edges, cut and make ready the shearweb pieces, mount together and make ready the spar joiner, and make the joiner box/pockets.
