Good day all, I am starting to build a cruzer and as I have a good sheet metal shop including come cnc stuff I would like some input as to if it is a good idea to trial make the pieces out of 1010, form them and remake the piece in 6061-t6. The two main reasons for this is a 1010 is available here , but 6061-t6 is ex import only and secondly to see if there are any"funnies" when the parts are formed. On quite a few parts I would only make one trial part eg wing ribs and then make sure the trial part is well away from the real stuff.
Also any pros and cons about using a structural adhesive as well as rivets when joining some parts eg wing spar doublers etc
thanks
