Sure Ken. C'mon over. Just tell the better half to leave the frying pan home. I already have a headache from mine. Lol. More progress;
this is what I've come up with for the LG and strut plate. I made a box structure between the two formers connecting them with a tab and notch arrangement. Now, it's basically one solid structure rather than two. Once I glue it up I'll also add the usual tri-stock and 45 angles in inside corners. Who knows? It may also serve well as a smoke tank box later on.well see.i feel it will be a whole lot stronger than buds way. He had nothing between the two formers and basically just glued the strut plate to the former. I don't think it added too much weight, but even if it did, I'm ok with it.
