The instructions say the supplied lug is 1" long, my kit lug was 1 1/4" long.
Sometimes it's easier to make straight short chop cuts with a single edge razor blade. Just press through the balsa with a new blade.
The lug was cut into two 1/2" sections.
TIP: To cut the lugs, slip it over a dowel. The dowel supports the lug wall so you won't crush it with the rolling knife pressure.
After a glue fillet, the lugs and standoffs were set on a dowel ready for a fill coat of CWF.
The dowel handle makes it easier to hold onto the small lug assemblies.
