kc Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 (edited) Yes, all 1/4 inch thick including the parts that are narrow (3/16 ? ) so the whole part is the same thickness at 1/4 inch and all presumably balsa. Ensure the grain is used correctly along the curved part and note the splice joint to enable the grain there to be used correctly.
