My first wing, after varnish was hung on my basement ceiling. The wood for that wing had been in the heated basement for two years. The other day when getting ready to store my second wing I noticed quite a few loose bolts on the first one. I had no idea the wood dried out and shrunk that much after storing in the controlled atmosphere.

The piet plans call for 13 ga. wire to be used for the drag and antidrag bracewires. What diameter is that in inches? I'm finding a range of .072 to .091 dependingon where I look.Thanks--------Jim BirkeIra G.
