The lines on both sides matched but when I glued the piece and the stringers up, I laid the piece down very carefully to match up the glue lines. Somewhere between laying down the plywood and getting the staple gun and the nylon cord for the staples, the plywood moved about a half inch forward. one leg of the staples hit the stringers and it glued down very well but at the scarf, the wood is of the longerons about a 1/16th of an inch. Not Good. I want to take out about six inches of the plywood including the scarf. I think I can do this woth a hacksaw blade holder and then scarf the one side and lay in a 6 inch piece scarfed on both edges. I guess I'll have to put in another upright piece at the scarf joint also. Does this sound right or should I try to take out the whole piece of plywood and redo the side. Has anyone run into this problem? Is there something, (Acetone) that will softenthe T-88 so I can get the side off > HELP > Pat Driscoll > Saint Paul, MN > patric...@usfamily.net > > > --- http://USFamily.Net/dialup.html - $8.25/mo! -- http://www.usfamily.net/dsl.html - $19.99/mo! --- > _______________________________________ > Search the KRnet Archives at http://www.maddyhome.com/krsrch/index.jsp > to UNsubscribe from KRnet, send a message to krnet-le...@mylist.net > please see other KRnet info at http://www.krnet.org/info.html >
