                                 IUsing sandpaper fixture from scrap blasa the insides of stabs are well sanded to prepare
                                       for final attachment. Here is the the expoy I prefer over any other barr none.
 

                                               nn
                                                 Just some of the choices for hardeners ..I stick with 207.

                              First glue up is the support bulkheads...wait to dry , then slide stabs into place, tack c/a
                                     after assureing perfect alingment. Next I use pins into wood to "space" the stabs for scale
                                     appearance .

                            ....      .

                            Next 2 mm holes are drilled...one into each stab above the I-beam type spar, the balsa
                                     catches the glue and attaches the balsa to carbon to stab in one fell swoop!  only 4 cc's
                                     of glue is needed to acheive perfect bonding. Right and light! no extra glue needed nor
                                     desired.
