Folks,



The diagonals on the inboard rib was never designed to reinforce the leading 

edge, they were placed there to keep the fabric from pulling the nose of the 

inboard rib from pulling  in when shrinking the fabric.



By slitting the fabric, there is amble room to replace these braces without 

having to remove the fabric from the wing. The bow braces could be placed by 

removing the fabric from the outboard rib out.



Bye adding 1/2 tubes there will do the same job and also reinforce the 

leading edge. Two diagonals on the bow tip at 45 degrees from the spar will 

keep everything in column.
