All,
Looking for information on the "magic number" for torquing assemblies to the
main spar (like the W.A.F.'s.) I've heard/read 10 ft. lbs. but just wanted to
see what others were doing. The ole that-feels-about-right method might be
okay too ;-) Thoughts?
Also, anyone have any experience
ts. Torque
specified was just sufficient to nip up the spacer tube. I quite like the
idea of inserts and spacer for removeable/folding wings, having a better
bearing area on the bolts.

I always used "tight". Check the bolts that hold the WAF's on, because the
wood will shrink over time. When I bought my first KR ( 90% complete and
only took 6 more years to finish ), I found that the bolts were very loose
and "snugged" them up. You want to be careful not to crush the wood.

The plans say 25 inch pounds for the WAF's.
