While building the wings for my Baby Great Lakes, one of the drag/anti-drag wires broke at the end of the thread (not a shock as far as location). They are made of 5052 aluminum (as called out in the plans). Should I be worried? If I'm going to redo all of them in steel, now is the time, before I button up the wings for good.
