I'd initially thought that the c-channel that spaces the vertical sides of the spar bulkhead was too fat at 1.125 inches. The gap between the front and rear parts of the bulkhead has to be 1.063 inches wide to allow the spar to fit in. So the 1.125 dimension worried me, since the c-channel fits in between the uprights.
Turns out no problem - it's okay. The bulkhead front and back is something like .032 each, so added up that's about 1/16 inch, and that's what the c-channel is.
Just another place where I needed to slow down and think harder.
And I'm still not done with the wings but I had a break where I was waiting on something and these parts were in the shop, so I was taking a look at them.
