Default RE: Simple quesiion

When you are finished tightening any assembly, three full threads must extend beyond the fastener. This is an FAA Regulation, but I like to use it for modeling as well as all the other things I do.

It would not sit well with me if a tightened up wing bolt were to wind up in the middle of a mounting block. To each his own.
