Hi all,
I've got some old spars from my Citabria and was wondering if they can be cut up and used as cap strip in building wing ribs. The grain isn't as fine as it is in the 1/4"x1/4" spruce cap strip that I bought a long time ago. Does it matter? I looked in AC43.13 but didn't see a specific reference to grain density for different wing parts.
Thanks!
Bart
