Abstract
A method of constructing a mandrel generally complementary to a spar cavity of a spar includes connecting a first component and a second component to form a central space there between and inserting a center component within the central space such that the center component retains the first component and second component in a desired position forming an outer surface of the mandrel which corresponds to an inner surface of the spar cavity.
