Default sig se question

Alright, I think I screwed up.....I've never built a kit before and I thought I was doin pretty good, then I finished sheeting my first wing half and realized I skipped a step. I forgot to put the shear web in. So now what do I do?
Thanks

If the rear of the spars are still exposed, you can install the shear webs there. Good Luck. Dave

If the rear spars aren't exposed, I'd cut along the main spar and the rear spar, lift the sheeting, get the shear webs in and then replace & reglue the sheeting. Let us all know what you do & how it comes out. Good Luck, Doc

BTW, Great fun plane, you are going to enjoy it

I actually did the same thing once building a Something Extra. Just glue the shear web to the back of the spars, instead of the front like the plans call for, and you will be just fine. It's a quick easy fix. And the good thing is, you'll never forget to do this again!!!!
