+++++++++++++++++ Roger that Mark - gold star and you are class capt for the week. I decided to check on the statement I made earlier re Bingelis - from his article Aircraft Woodwork Basics (Sport Aviation - 9/96): "A sanded soft wood surface in preparation for gluing is considered to be inferior to a smoothly planed one but those amazing epoxies don't know the difference". I feel better now coz I will sand and clean carefully every time. Steve J Zambia
