Re: Bruce's tuft study on sparrow strainers
Jeff,
I make the side plates with a notch > that fits over the trailing edge of th=
e elevator 1/8=E2=80=9D or so. That loads the adhesive in compression and sh=
ear like it is supposed to be loaded. Just gluing them on the bottom puts th=
e adhesive in peeling tension. Glue is not strong in peel.
Clean the surface , use fine sandpaper to sand to the glass on the elevator b=
ottom, use structural epoxy filled with flox for no drip fillets to bond the=
m on.
There is a Dragonfly group=20

Justa quick question. Can anyone recommend a reliable adhesive to attach the Sparrow Strainers to the elevator considering the constant high loads.

My nerdiness must be rubbing off on you, or maybe you are just retired and want something time consuming to do.
