I did the same as Richard W , I drew a circle on a piece of the 12mm 
plywood the same dia as the bracket tried it in place with the wings in 
position then once I had the thickness correct blended out from the 
bracket circle to the edge this made the outside dia about 3 1/2 inches 
. Then glue and glass as per manual.  Good luck Richard C

Tony,
    Depending on the thickness you need. I used waste from the tri-gear 
leg sockets ribs. I cut a 2 1/2 inch circle with a hole saw, then it was 
cut down through its edge at the angel needed to contour the side of the 
fuselage. Worked a treat.

I would like to request advice regarding methods of shaping the ply 
inserts for the rear Trailing Edge Lift Pin Sockets if anyone has 
digressed from the manual, either by material/medium or method. Thanks.
