I did not know that I had to get all the way to the fuel tanks to figure out I screwed up cutting the J channels. I guess that is what I get for not reading ahead. Unless I missed something on the very first page of the wing build.
It turns out that I was supposed to cut two of the 8' J channels in 1/2 to get the J-channel short and not use the 6' J channel to make the J-channel short.
Apparently all the 6' J Channels are for the leading edge of the wing and all the long ones are for the aft section of the wings.
Anybody les make this mistake or am I the only idiot who did this.
Maybe this should go in the "Gotcha list", unless I am the only one to do this.
So far this is the second thing I screwed up on page 1. At 13.50 each plus shipping, it is only another $35.
Well on the bright side, I just finished the left wing up to the fuel tank section. I hung that one up and put the right spar on the work bench today.
