Mark Langford speaks of using a bent spar in the stub wings where you bend 
your spars by laminating quarter inch strips together just outside the 
fuselage. This sets the wing dihedral at the wing stubs and allows fuel in 
stub-mounted tanks to sump inboard. 

I am going to use the AS504x airfoil developed for the KR-2S. I have the 
AS5048/45 rib templates, available at: 
http://www.krnet.org/as504x/templates.html.

I have a few questions on using a bent spar with the new airfoil. 

How do the ΒΌ" strips Mark mentions bend the spar? 
How will the rib templates need to be modified for the bent spar? 
What effect will the bent spar have on the wing's washout and angle of 
incidence? 

Thanks,
