Re: Methods for Squaring a Wing
Chris, Your method looks good. A bit more elegant than what I did as shown on this page: http://www.sonexbuilders.net/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=578&start=590 A key sanity check: with the skin clecoed to the aft spar the rib blue lines should line up under the holes. They may not all be perfect bu...

Re: Bending Rudder Drive Horn
Bob, I have a few pics on my build thread like the one on this page: http://www.sonexbuilders.net/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=578&p=6035&hilit=Arbor+press#p6035 1) Choose a big honking bolt to give you the proper bend radius. Saw off the head or threads if required. You can use any round steel ...

Re: Sonex lights and wire choice
Bud,
Welcome to the forums! Near the top definitely-so the light is not masked from above. I plan to mount just aft of the spar and pick up the tip rib with the forward mounting hole. That should be fine fore and aft.

Re: SNX-F08 seat pan stick holes in right spot?
Mike, This is engineers week. It has to be to the 128th of an inch. You don't need a 128th ruler Kevin - 1/64 will do. Then you can estimate. Actually I thought it was funny they called out 29/64" and then I had to take an inch out. It is like they looked at the throw only on the front side of ...
