Instead, I'm going with the alternative method of pine rectangles with wood screws. I've used this method in the past with never a problem and I've seen others use it also (ie: Steve Johnston!!) And it's light!!

Cummulative Savings = 45.2oz

Thats how i did my Edge, and Milos's Dalton.
Just a nice button head allen wood screw
