The 5/16" x 5/8" strips are for the nose rib stringer. Nose ribs are notched for this, and the stringer is epoxied into the slot. I bought 14-foot lengths of spruce for my spars from ACS. You need to call them to get the longer lengths. It is OK to splice the spars as long as you do it correctly, and I recommend you do it at about 2-feet from the outer end.

Hmmm. I copied and pasted the verbiage from AC 4313 on splicing spars, and this site gave me a 403 forbidden.
At any rate, you can splice anywhere except at the root, strut, or interplane locations. Minimum of 1 to 10 scarf. Google it and all will be explained.

You guys are awesome! I did not see the note for the 5/8 x 5/16 nose rib stringer on the full size nose rib pattern. I am using les's rib pattern. I will decide on whether scarfing or getting ahold of ACS for full length cap strips. The AC 4313 was very helpful Pappy. I will consult that source for other info.
