She says buying them would be way cheaper then the amount of wine I will have to provide for her to make them LOL. I think you can relate.

Got the first upper wing into the bag this morning and will get the second in the bag tomorrow morning. I started working on the stab cores and was able to get the hole cut for the stab tube. So far all the root ribs and tube supports for the upper wings and stabs have been made out of Divinicell with two layers of 1.4 oz cloth bagged on each side. This material is about the same weight as 8 lb balsa but just as strong as lite ply. I am experimenting with some Divinicell with CF bagged on that I want to use as the firewall and gear mount. In order to do this I will have to sleeve the mounting holes with CF tube to keep from crushing the material when screws are tightened. If that doesn't work out I will do some using a couple layers of 1/32 ply along with 3 layers of 5.7 CF. I have used that ply layup a couple times now with great results but always looking for a lighter option.

After talking to a couple well known pattern pilots I have decided to go with a normal plug in stab with elevators and adjusters. I will post some pictures of the stab root ribs with the adjusters installed when they are finished.
