Hi Guys,
I am 4 ribs in to my Pietenpol project and just found out that I was supposed to make a "test strips" along with the ribs (per side?).
What is the method used for testing joints that are bonded together with epoxy? I've heard of guys gluing 2 sets of scrap pieces together (..and writing the rib number and date) and break one of them 48 hours after it has set and let the AME break the other.
Has anyone done this.. and if so do you overlap them, make a t-shape? What is the preferred method?
