Well, I finished it. I know I'm pretty slow, but I fit in work on it between work and house duty obligations. Also, just didn't feel rushed. Checked and rechecked everything. CG set at 75mm. Took several tries to get that right. .20 of an ounce to get lateral balance. We're in the midst of Winters end, so it's going to be awhile until I can do backyard engine tests and eventually a maiden. I'll have to post a picture while it still looks good. Although, it looks like an Escapade. Don't know why I waited this long to put mine together.
