Next, Tim and Eric use a 1/4-20 tap bit to tap threads for the wing retaining bolts into the plywood wing mount blocks. Then, harden the threads with thin CA. (For the record, I do too; but apparently these guys don't seem to care enough about what I do, to take a picture of me. I mean, the camera is laying "right there," guys -- come on. )

The wing is then mounted to the fuselage.









Tim installs the 1/4-20 nylon wing-retaining bolts.
