Front Spar

 

I will have to say that the spars are simple and straight forward to build. The main spar is an I beam construction except for at the route end as shown in the picture. In this photo everything is just fit into place.

 

A rather large picture!

After the route end parts are fit you install the 1/8' ply into the rib caps. As you can see a wood vice was made all the way down the lenth of the spar while the glue dries. After the glue dries the internial parts are put in the route end and the 1/8" plywood is glued on both sides. After this is all dry than you apply the rest of the parts to the spar. From bottom to top you can see the aleron tube guide and above that the strut attachment point and a few other pieces of bracing.

 

These are all the metal parts made for the front and rear spars.
