<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Karl,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My answer might surprise you. When I have need to core my foam cores I core them from root to tip so the foam surface is in full contact with the skins. My wings were of interest to several people at the Nats to see how this works, but the local guys are used to my weirdness. This approach produces a wing with no soft spots on the surface.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>Do you apply the glue to the skins or to the foam core in case of a</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>To skin a foam core with contest grade balsa does anyone have a preferred way to determine when the amount of epoxy applied is adequate - using Easy Lam epoxy. I have been reluctant to use a squeegie, afraid of scoring the balsa. Would appreciate any comments. Nat</FONT></DIV>
