I have the wing almost ready to cover. Right now it's just tacked together, just need to put a half pound or so of glue on it to hold it together during those rough touch and goes.

The weight of all that wood and glue so far is 5 lbs 12 oz. The main landing gear will add another pound. The rest of the fuselage will be 1/4" sticks and the tail blocks and wheel so that won't add too much more weight.

Slides together easily.

The good thing is that it slides together easily and that was a real challenge.
