Okay, thanks.
I’ve been looking at these types of sheets, especially the carbon ones for some time now.

I’m Definitely looking forward to your comments as it pertains to the sheeting of the foam cores.

Devin, what did you use for bonding the (G10) sheets to the cores?

Is that "3m-30nf contact adhesive".

Okay, Got it.

What are your plans for the reinforcing of the center section after you join the wings?
