v_twin1k... Yeah they will come apart if you don't strength the block..
The way I did mine ... I used 1/4 angled bulsa(4), I applied C.A. on to
the bulsa strips and let dry then I epoxied it to the four corners of the
L.G. block.. I did not go very high on the wing side of the block, But on
the firewall side I went up pass the lite ply that the bottom of the tank
sits on and also added more epoxy around the block.. It's pretty strong
now... I've had the plane drop on the gear from about a foot and a half
from a dead stick and the gear stayed on... I think it was Gary and
maybe CeeGee that added pushrods??? from the wing opening glued
to the block and out through the ramp under the engine compartment??
But you'd have to find the post to be sure, It's just a few pages back I
think....

I'm letting the glue dry now on my profile before putting the cover back
on... It'll be good to go for the A.M.
