Bob, I don't recall seeing this before so I'll post it. Most of the KRs I've looked at and all the ones I've owned (that's 5 at last count), parts and components like spars, WAFs and how they've been installed is a one-off building process. What I mean is these are most typically a "drill to fit" s

I have read that using the WAF's to make the plane portable is not a good idea as the bolts, washers and nuts will eventually wear out the WAF's. That makes sense. I would think a good solution ,and easy to do would be to make the holes in the WAF's larger, and use bushings in those holes
