Brief Description:  Glued compression struts

Cut all the 3/4"x3/4" spruce compression struts for the upper wing at the 6.5 degrees and trial fit them. These struts must be on the rib centreline and fit well. The glue points were marked on each strut and rib then the inside face was coated with ClearCoat since access to this face will be difficult when the are glued.
When the Clear coat was dry, T88 was used to glue each of the 16 compression struts to the rib locations at stations 46, 79 and 112. Compression ribs at station 13 (the middle box section) were glued later.
