7. Mix up a medium-size batch (approximately 1/4 oz
[7.5cc]) of 30-minute epoxy for the following three steps.
❏
8. Cut the covering from the holes in the leading edge of both
wing halves for the wing dowels. Chamfer one end of both 3/8"
x 1-3/4" [10 x 45 mm] hardwood wing dowels. Use epoxy to glue
in both dowels so 7/16" [10 mm] of each dowel protrudes.
❏
9. Use epoxy to glue the 1/4" x 1-1/4" [6 x 30 mm] hardwood
alignment dowel halfway into one of the wing halves.
❏
10. Spread a thin layer of epoxy over the edges of the
covering around the firewall–this will ensure that the covering is
thoroughly sealed and fuel-proofed. Use an epoxy brush to
lightly coat the formers at both ends of the wing saddle as well.

1. Cut eight 1" x 1" [25 x 25 mm] CA hinges from the
