The longeron yoke is the one I use most often! Quickbuild or not, you will need one.

I think you could probably build the whole airplane with just three yokes: longeron, 3" regular, and 4" no-hole.

Matt is correct. You must have one to do many areas.

Where do you use this tool. I have built five of them so far without a 3" yoke and no problems found.

Longeron yoke use

Uses that I recall off the top of my head are: on the HS innermost reinforcement angle rivets, to put solids rather than pops in the rudder horn, on the trim tab leading edge, on the VS ribs, on the wing rib to rear spar . . . Those are what I remember, but I know I used it a lot. It certainly isn't necessary, but it was really nice to have.
