I guess I had better 'fess up.
I did the reinforcements 0/90 instead of 45deg. And then adding really dumb
behaviour to stupidity, I closed the wings out and then realized what I had
done...
I talked to andy about this and he said that the general opinion was to open
up and do them again. He suggested heat and wished me luck! He was very
nice about it
I am currently trying to heat up the skins to loosen the Araldite but I am
getting the distinct feeling that I will end up without useful skins and
with damage to the underneath structure. So I fear than unless anyone has a
bright I idea that new skins are the order of the day. Expensive.
So any ideas or help gratefully received. Anyone got a spare pair of skins
- or perhaps someone who changed standard wings for glider wings?
Will

I have made an error in construction in the interior of the wings and
very
cleverly close then (with the error inside).
So now I have to open them again.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks
Will
