  • What radius are you guys bending your main spars at

    If I`m reading Erics book right...his bending radius on his spars are 1/16 (correct me if I`m mis-reading)

    on the plans page 5b it at section A-A it says spar radius .10....im not sure what Bob means by that

    The 8 foot bending brake I have access to has 1/8 radius machined onto it

    Is a 1/8 radius going to create a corner the edge of the rib cant fit snugly into?

    The .10 means bend radius is 1/10 inch. !/8 inch shouldn't be a problem and probably what most are using.
