Don't underestimate the importance of a good, preferably synthetic grease when assembling any glider. A couple of years ago my tie-down neighbor showed up with his brand-new ASG-29. We just about killed ourselves a couple of times trying to get the heavy inner wings on until I gave him my Super Lube synthetic grease (what a name!). He did have the undersized main pin from Schleicher to align the wings but that still didn't help much.

Super Lube to the rescue, don't go to the glider club without it!

Super Lube is one of my favorites too, good for almost everything . . . with one exception. Don't even consider trying it on THAT!
