I'm moving forward with the build and have completed building and joining the two wing panels, and have also made my first blunder of this build. It seems that somehow, while joining the wing panels with epoxy I failed to make certain that the plywood dihedral wing joiner on the aft side of the spars was aligned properly and I was a little messy with the epoxy and have some squeeze out that I should have cleaned up. I failed to notice this until after the epoxy had cured! [:@] The front dihedral brace is fine, and although the rear dihedral brace was misaligned the overall wing and it's dihedral seem to be correct and still align on the jig blocks. I think I can just trim the aft dihedral brace where it sticks above the spar on the right wing panel and below the spar on the left wing panel. At least I'm hoping that I can do that without compromising too much of the strength of the wing join. I also dropped the wing while sanding it and ended up breaking out a junk of the flap skins on the right wing. I cut and pieced in a couple of patches and filled the area with filler, but I am debating whether or not to just remove the entire flap skins and do them over. These mistakes have taken a little of the wind out of my sails, but I will try to just overlook them and continue to move forward with the build.

I already had a set of #650 Robostruts laying around, so I just went ahead and ordered the #606 85 deg. Retracts and Air Kit from Robart. Now I need to decide on the powerplant.

Anyhow, although this is not intended to be a build thread, I just wanted to share my progress, report in, and share a few more photos.
