Brief Description:  Left Wing, lower skin layup

Sanded back glued on bit from yesterday's oops, and cut some more peel ply.

Experimented with fitting the peel ply for ailerons and trailing edge. Discover least damage is done by firing staples from about 2mm from surface, they go through the peel ply and embed into the foam nicely. Just have to push them in firmly with a mixing stick.

Note while reviewing the instructions that the flox corner around the Wing Bolt access holes I was wondering about IS called out in this section.

Use 0.5kg of resin just for micro! I fill remaining divots with dry micro, then slurry over all the foam. Peel ply applied to Aileron line and the trailing edge. Raw epoxy painted over the Spar Cap. 2 x UND over all, as called out by the plans, with the extra forecast bits required. 1 x BID reinforcement at the tip and 2 x 1 x UND reinforcements around the LE notch applied, with peel ply on both, all joins, and on 2" of leading edge. 1kg more resin used.

Pre-cut PVC angle clamped between 3m and 1m straight edge and the upper surface of the trailing edge, using 50mm pipe clamps., to ensure a edge straighter than the TE of my Canard :)
