Trailing edge turned out pretty nice...on to the leading edge rolling. Started out with a 3/4 in PVC, up to 1" then 1.25". With the clecos in, it's obvious that you can't get a huge bend when trying to get into the spar area. Don't have photos up on my log yet, but have read over a dozen threads on this subject but haven't seen anything about how much gap is allowable between the two halves before clecoing for the final drilling. I have left the middle and lower pieces cleco'd for now, but when I pull the clecos out, I am left with about 3/4" gap between the two edges, which forces me to push them together before putting the clecos back in. Is this permissible? Not sure how I can get the sides to bend over any more...concerned about side loading on the skin and spar connections.
