Well after soliving the dimpling problem I mounted the QG tank that came with my wing kit to find out that the holes in the tank did not line up exactly with the counersunk holes in the main spar.
I thought it was just a tight fit to butt up against the leading edge so I got some screws installed as I figured they would pull the tank into alignment. Net result was that I have now elongated some of the dimpled holes in the tank and some have small cracks in these dimples (4 of them to be precise).
I am now stuck on how to solve this problem, my first thought was to throw myself off a tall building however I have decided there must be a better solution. One thought is to replace the countersink screws with pan head screws or maybe rivet a thin strip under the tank skin. Both will not be as neat as the original design.
Any brilliant suggestions??.
With the right wing I will of course check the alignment of the tank with the spar before I countersink and mount and simple everything.
