Wing walk ply question.

"Mustardbuilder" wrote

Dunno, that's what I was asking. I've laminated two pieces of ply
together before, just was wondering if it was practical or advisable to
do it curved.

I would be very surprised if your one ply of 1/4" ply would not conform to
the curve you need. Astonished, even! g

Don't forget that the curve is part of what gives that thin of a piece of
plywood the ability to carry your weight.

Is there any other structure to help out? Extra stringers, or anything?

I would think there should be no more than 6" to a stronger structure as you
measure parallel to the grain of the ply face, and perhaps 9 or 10 inches
between supports as measured across the grain.

Are those types of numbers close to what all of you other wooden
homebuilders have found in your plans?

I am going with these types of numbers based upon my knowledge of being a
woodworker. I am curious if that is what others have found.
