Yes, I would still do the .032 doubler between the post and the spring
attach bulkhead, as we "Ontarians" have been doing for some time (8I got my tailwrap doubler fitted over the weekend. For the trim line I+).
fastened a felt tip marker to a piece of string. I held the marker at
fromcornertop of the tailwrap at the fin spar and held the string at the bottomof the tailwrap. I drew an 90 degree arc that ended about 8" forward
extendsthe bottom rear corner.
The doubler catches the bottom 2/3rds of the bathtub fitting and
it.about 2" in front of the tailspring bolt. Does this sound like I did it
right? I don't have any good pictures of a Rebel with this doubler on

Hi Drew
Neat (but scary) experiment. It seems to tear easilly with or against
the grain for me. (started the cut with the shears and then tried
tearing it).
Sure illustrates why nicks and scratches are not a good thing.
A good point though, aluminum sheet certainly has a grain and as such it
should be easier to tear or fatigue it parallel to the grain. Generally
metal does fail along the weaker grain boundaries. That is a failure
mode that may have to be allowed for in some applications. If you bend
the metal to its yield point, such as when we intentionally bend a
bracket, it certainly makes sense to do it at right angles to the grain
where possible.
But we are trying to operate our airframe in the lower stress region
below the yield point (where the metal is permanently bent). In this
region the aluminum generally has the same strength in all directions as
I understand it.
I'm curious if anyone has ever seen a recommendation to not parallel the
grain when fabricating a doubler?? I never have but I'm not too old to
learn a new trick if someone else has.

I can not agree that two 0.020 laminated sheets are stronger than one
0.040 sheet. In some modes such as bending they will generally be weaker
due to stress concentrations at rivets, but admittedly that is not a
mode that is usually significant for us. Aluminum is not generally

Hi There
I bet that when you get MEK into a cut after attempting to bare handedly rip
0.020" aluminium along the grain, you get more than a cool tingly feeling.
Downright painful in my experience!

I bet that when you get MEK into a cut after attempting to bare handedly rip
0.020" aluminium along the grain, you get more than a cool tingly feeling.
Downright painful in my experience!

all it says right on the tube "bonds skin on contact" No kidding!

I read somewhere that Super Glue was a war development effort to be used
in closing wounds. Faster than stitching and I guess more sterile for
the wound.
