I sure hope some #6 screw holes drilled into the spar cap aren't fatal to the
spar. If they are, then I'd better go yank the wings off my plane and start on
a new set. However, after over 700 hours in this plane, I'm thinking there
wasn't any adverse effect.

Hi Guys.
The bracing I used are 4 x 1.5 and the screws are 6G which are pretty thin.
I pre-drilled the bracing timbers all the way through with one hole at each
end. I then marked the drill bit with masking tape at the 2" line and went
through the bracing and into the spar caps 1/2". From memory
I screwed up. I doweled them with
t88 and I'm not going to worry about it.

I just saw on Darren Compton's site that he appeared to actually "screw" 2 X
4s to the spars. Would this not be damaging to the spars? Weaken them or set
up a stress riser?

They are the size that fits the threads on the instruments. If you don't have
instruments with threaded holes, then you get to use what you want. I have
some of both.

You may be looking for a brass 4-40 screw. Go to :

Be careful, I had a couple that had metric screws for mounting.

Generally they are 6-32 but you might find metric if you get some of the
cheap imports from China. The standard for new US manufacture is 6-32. Some
of
the older or larger instruments may be 8-32.
