Also remember that the thickness of these webs will affect the spacing of the WAFs as they slide into each other for wing attachment.

You get a full web on the rear face of the forward spar and a full web on the forward face of the rear spar (outer wings). You also get a web on the front face of the front spar for the first 12" only. and you get a web on the back of the rear spar for 12" only. You don't need that extra web it only adds weight > Mike Turner > ----- Original Message ----- > From: red-bri...@juno.com > To: kr...@mylist.net > Sent: Wednesday, August 20, 2003 11:57 AM > Subject: KR>new KR builder - spar question > > > > Hello, > > Ok, so I've wanted to build a KR-1 since October, 1974 (yes, I still have the magazine) and I just now got around to ordering the plans.
