Wing

JOINING THE WING

1.

Collect the following items:

(1) Right wing

(1) Left wing

(1) Wing joiners

(2) 5mm x 17 dowel

A book or block of wood

NOTE: If the covering on your wing has loosened in

transit, refer to the covering section of the

INTRODUCTION before continuing.

2.

Insert the wing joiner with the angle cut facing

up, into the joiner pockets in both wing halves.

The joiners should fit easily in the pockets and

the wing halves should meet in the middle,

with the wing dihedral forming a broad "V".

Trial fit the wing dowel in the hole, as shown

above. When satisfied with the fit of the dowel

and the joiners, remove them from the wing

pockets.

3.

Working on a protected surface, and with a

paper towel handy for cleaning fingers,

THOROUGHLY

mix 1-2 large (soup) spoons

each from bottle A and bottle B of Epoxy

.

(Use

equal amount of each part and mix with a stick

in a plastic or paper cup, or on a sheet of

waxed paper.)

Spread epoxy on the joiner

Put additional epoxy in the joiner pockets and

in the dowel hole and spread a thin layer of

epoxy  along one side of the entire center joint

area. 

Immediately proceed to the next step.

4.

Working rapidly, so that the epoxy does not set

before you are finished, slide the wing joiner

into one wing pocket.

Slide the dowels into the dowel holes. Then

slide the wing halves together until they are

touching.

5.

With masking tape, tape the wing halves

together at the trailing edge and close to the

leading edge, as shown.  This will help keep

the wing from twisting.

Place additional tape at several locations

across the center seam of the wing, so that the

halves stay firmly together while the epoxy

sets.

NOTE: 

When one wing half is flat on the table, the

wing dihedral will force the other side of the wing up

about 2-1/2" off the table.  Place a book or a block of

wood under the high side to support the wing and keep

the halves in proper position. 

Caution: Do not distort

the wing by blocking it too high or too low, and do

not touch the assembly until the epoxy dries.
