Hello all:One more time I would like to invite all of you to stop by the work-shops atSun N Fun.We'll be doing a lot of wood construction demonstartions that should be funand informative.About a month ago I posted asking for volunteers. Again, please considerdonating a few hours during your visit - if not with us, in some othercapacity. It takes hundreds of volunteers to pull this annual fiasco off,we need as much horsepower as possible. Even if you can't volunteer pleasecheck out the workshops (wood in particular) and say hello. Best to all!And for those who can't make it to SNF...... Na Na NA NA NA NA!!!!!!:)Bert________________________________________________________________________________Date: Wed, 05 Apr 2000 21:21:09 -0700

If you measure 1/4" in (capstrips) from the outside lines of the full size template, the full spar height should just fit. Error was probably introduced by merely tracing around a rib. The other problem with the template (more critical) is the distance between spars.>>>use the full size plans, but modify it according to>the coordinates listed on the plan. it doesn't take>much. some full size plans are right on and some are>off. mine was way off.
