A butt joint won't be as good as a scarf joint, because you will need tojoin the pieces of plywood together before gluing them down to the fuselagestructure, and they have a curve in them. A scarf joint, properly done, isas strong as an uninterrupted sheet of plywood _____

I second the need for Tony Bengelis' books, although I found "The Sportplane Builder"and "Sportplane Construction Techniques" to be very similar. If you canonly afford one of the two right now, I would recommend "The Sportpane Builder."The other two that round out the set of four that everyone references, "FirewallForward" and "Converting Auto Engines" are equally good in the information theyprovide. I honestly haven't dug into either very deeply yet, but I have thumbedthrough both a time or two and I can tell that they will be very helpfulwhen the time comes. My 2% of a dollar.--------Mark - working on wingsRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: RE: Pietenpol-List: Re: 85th Anniversary of Pietenpol design-- will YOUbe there witDate: Tue, 25 Aug 2009 17:45:38 -0400
