Then you put a T-nut (blind-nut) in from the bottom side, but the sharp edges of the t-nut (that goes into the wood) would hit the aluminum cabane strut!!
I'll did some research in the other thread for the Hog Bipe Build, but could not find anything regarding this.....maybe I'll cut off a portion of the sharp points, so that it can only go into one the the plywood plates.

You say the kit was a few years old. I just bought mine two weeks ago from Tower Hobbies so here are two pictures from the drawing showing the side and front views of the cabane, plywood and blind nut stackup in case things have been updated. Also you can get the latest PDF manual at http://www.sigmfg.com/cgi-bin/dpsmar...osF.html?E+Sig



Do you see any differences?
