Howdy,

I've been thinking about how to run wires in an aluminum wing that is already
finished. I can fish something through the holes in the ribs, but I don't
want to just let a wire or cable lay on the raw edges of the rib holes.

How big is the wire? Does it really need to go inside the wing?
Sometimes there is room in the flap/aileron bay in which to tuck the
wire. If it does have to go through the wing there have been some
imaginative thought already posted. I like the Kraft paper tube idea
but might sub something that isn't hydrophilic - like the mylar.
