Hi Group Another 20 minute Europa job.
Sliced XS Monowheel outriggers in half and widened about 5/8”.
No way, no how even with hardware width reduction were they[img]cid:mf_7F0A8D72-ECC4-4367-B06D-2224F39F3EB8/L0/001[/img] going to fit.
Glass was very thin in areas and gelcoat very thick. Had to grind out all gelcoat cracks.
Rebuilt flanges to fit wing by thinning, heating and glassing in proper shape.
Made a form tool for lead edge that worked great for filling and sanding.
Pic is Wayne sculpting!

You sure that was 20 minutes not 20 hours? Wayne has that serious French sculptor look down really well, everyone needs a helper like him, great image!
