>Excellent tip and here is another. Find some white PVC pipe laying
>around your shop. You can make nice clamps by cutting 1/2" wide rings of
>PVC pipe and then cutting them so they can be opened up. Perfect for all
>gussets etc. You can also make different size clamps by using different
>size pipe.

>clamps. Since the whole idea is to hold the gussets in place until the
>epoxy cures and because you are horizontal to begin with you don't need
>a lot of clamping pressure. I went to my local five & dime and bought a
>bag of small hair clamps. I think there were fifty in a bag and I bet it
>didn't cost five bucks. These things came with teeth that would make a
>great white proud and some of them I cut the teeth off and others I left
>them on because the "grip angle" of the gusset blocks would require the
>grip that these would provide. These clamps were made from thin plastic
>and would actually conform to the joint being clamped. They would
>provide enough pressure to squeeze the epoxy out but not leave an
>impression in the wood which should be avoided. If you have to apply
>this much pressure you need to recut the gusset. Epoxies are a lot
>better than the resorcinol glues of the past that required near perfect
>joint contact but that is not an excuse to be sloppy. By using these
>clamps I found that I could "afford" to complete the entire fuselage
>side frame at one time instead of having to do it in stages because I
>didn't have enough clamps.
