Peasant_Pilot Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Good evening all, Just looking to get some insight on inspecting wood wings, they are uncovered and mostly constructed, they are either Spruce or Hoop pine but id say they are hoop pine just based off the information i have. besides the obvious things like cracking and splits etc, are there any techniques, checks i can do on the spars? moisture check etc Cheers in advance Cheers Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
