RE: Sig Hog Bipe Build
Day 8:
Well I am not happy and am trying to decide what to do. Today, I decided to reinforce the TE sheeting on the top wing. Since the CA has been bothering me quite a bit, I decided to use titebond glue. You can see from the pics that it did not go well. For all but 3 bays on the left side all was OK. However, on the middle bays, the TE sheeting had become so thin from sanding that it was pretty thin. When I glued the 1/16" sheeting on the back side, it warped quite a bit. I am now trying to figure out what to do. I have considered filling the warped area with Hobbylite filler than sanding smooth. And have even thoguht about taking out the sheeting between the ribs, building side supports and refilling with 1/16" sheeting. I am just not in a mood to make the decision yet, so I have pushed in some clothespins to try to keep the surface as flat as possible and once the glue dries, I will think about my next move. Btw, the pictures really don't show the dips in the sheeting very well.
Ideas on what to do are welcome and will be appreciated!!!
