Default Building a built-up pattern stab and wing

I'm currently building a stab and wing for Mike Mueller and thought I could photo document the build process here. Mike has a Mystic fuse from Todd Schmidt and we are going to put a Spark anhedral stab and a new - never flown - elliptical wing on the plane, kit bashing at it's best. I'm not really good at taking pictures when a build is in progress, really slows everything down, but will try to do my best here. If anyone has any questions or wants to see something specific to the build please let me know and I will attempt to provide a response.

I started with the stab last night for a couple of hours and did the same earlier today. Below are the plans for the stab and some pictures.

stab sheeting: 3/32" not the 1/16" as noted in the stab plan

4"x36" long sheeting weights = 14 to 16 grams each for best results
