My wife and I live by the rule: Always eat your desert first, you may not live through dinner!! That's what we did last night. I also cooked up a couple steaks but we each only ate half so we don't need to cook dinner tonight.
This morning I thought I would just walk out and glue in the last of the sticks, Wrong!! I glued in a couple of sticks that were under a load. I moistened them too so they would take a warp to relieve the tension when they dried. I used clamps and a bag of lead shot to hold things down. When I went out this morning I discovered the bag of lead shot had slid off so I had to re-glue everything again. While doing some other minor work I managed to knock out a couple of the vertical sticks with my fat wrinkled hands!! No big deal, I had the epoxy mixed so once I located the little sticks , on the floor with the scraps of course!! I just glued everything back up. 5 more sticks to go and I will install the gussets so this doesn't happen again. I think I will add another stick to the fuse bottom too, one more long spar just to be safe. If my friend thinks it weighs too much he can just install a bigger motor.
