Richard,

My stand worked out to be about mid way between shoulders and waist, and it is glued together. The only tricky part is gluing the support brace in place. I wish I could remember just how I did it, but I'm sure with a little thought and planning you will manage. At that height it also is handy for installing your radio components, laying out paint patterns(striping, graphics,etc.), finish sanding, and just about anything that an extra pair of hands would help you do.


It's 1:15 PMhere and I'm still waiting for my wing sheeting. It's supposed to be on the truck and out for delivery, so when it does get here I guess I'll weigh it, sort it, andglue upfour planks to cover the wings. In the mean time I have been sanding on the fuselage and tail feathers in order to reduce the weight as much as possible. So far the fuse and feathers have gained 2.0 ozs. That would be from bare balsa to glassed and urethaned, readyfor paint. With any luck I will be able to achieve the same results on each wing panel.
