Concerning the 701 Elevator:



When placing the rear spar ( 7h2-2 ) to 7h1-4 and and the other two ribs, is

it more critical to insure the ribs are at a right angle to the rear spar,

or that 7h2-2 is centered relative to the front spar ( 7h2-1 ).



I already drilled one of the full length ribs so it is flush to the rear

spar doublers ( next to, not overlapping ), and everything is at a right

angle, but I noticed that one of the clamps on the other rib slipped and now

the other rib is about 10mm off from the doubler when at a right angle to

the rear rib.



Moving the rib that I already drilled 5mm doesn't seem like an option since

the holes and rivets would be very close.



Any suggestions?

Thanks

Thank you everyone for your advise.



I luckily just messed up the measurments, not the part. After careful

measurement with the piece clamped down more I realizes the piece was

shifting when I moved the square. Some holes did need to be widened just a

bit, but it shouldn't be an issue.
