Locating Fabric Clip Holes

Post by scotts97385 »

The "Last 120" left wing is well into recovering.
The fabric clip holes can be hard to find but a very bright light behind illuminates them nicely. I use a awl and pre punch the holes along with pencil mark to make them easier to find after the reinforcing tape is on. Then I use a cheap solder iron to melt the holes in.
