Here you see aft starboard hardpoint bonded in place.
First we JB KWIKed in place, once JB cured we wet out and added a little flox fillet and laid up 3 thin plies of model aeroplane cloth, then applied a little more flox fillet and 3 more plies.
Note 3 thin plies of model aeroplane cloth equal about same thickness of 1 BID.
The layup is outboard, not on the easy flat side the camera is showing you.

Here you see port aft hardpoint complete.
We added a little flox filled on edges of G-10 and peel plied inboard surface.
This piece of G-10 is plenty stuck to airframe!

Worked great!
Fit is near perfect.

Here Alan is going after the G-10 hardpoints with a Dremil tool with Tungsten Carbide wheel using JB sanding guide to guide him.

Here you can see out third screw G-10 attachments.
First we applied 3M 375 packaging tape to the fuse and aft covers and applied some JB KWIK weld to made a guide for sanding G-10.
We scuff sanded the tape on the covers to force the JB to stick to the cover, but it was not too cooperative. After we waxed the fuse tape on subsequent attempts that did the trick to force the JB to stick to the covers.
Once we had sanding guide in place the aft holes were drilled and JB sanding guides trimmed to allow G-10 hardpoints to fit flush on cover.
After fabricating the G-10 hardpoints, we applied tape to the G-10 and scuff sanded the the aft covers, then screwed the G-10 to covers after applying JB KWIK weld to give us a perfect fit / pad.

After tightening port middle screw the washer sunk into the Expancel a bit as I expected.
No problem, i just gave it a quick fill with JB KWIK weld.
Here you see the third aft holes have been drilled in line with front two holes.
