Reinforced Stringer 4 Originally uploaded by OzzyC.
Greg and I talked about my concern with the weak stringer joints, and he came up with a solution. But then again, Gregs an engineer, so why should I have doubted him in the first place, right? Greg cut out a gusset ("gusset" is a fancy-schmancy word for "piece of scrap wood designed to hold our stringer together temporarily") and screwed it to the stringer, providing a great temporary brace. The gussets will stay on the stringers until were ready to set them in place.
In addition to adding the gussets, we cut off the excess fiberglass tape and lightly sanded both sides of the stringers, mainly focusing on smoothing out the fiberglass joints.
