Hi Beamishken
I drilled a pilot holes through the deck and into the first then screwed it down, also was going to bond it as well but probably it would be easier just to bond the deck down.
Thank you for the help
Cheers Kevin

I always think it's best to screw it down to pull the deck down tight to the stringers etc then you know theres unlikely to be any gaps where it's not touching the stringers etc

Can't wait to get the fuel tank in and get the deck screwed down for good. Then it will start to look like a rib again.
Cheers Kevin

Making slow progress, not going as quickly as I'd have liked I realy need to update the build thread & get my head back into making progress on the engine build too. Had a busy year doing stuff on the house & other work.
Good to see your making steady progress👍

I know how you feel ken not enough hours in the day to do everything.
While I'm waiting for the fuel tank arrive (end of November). Got the rest of the floor cut but running out things to do on the rib.
Cheers Kevin
