Well the build continues over the day, I have finally mounted the firewall and motor, also I have put the cowl together, used a bit of CA, then a strip of 5 oz glass cloth and 30 min epoxy. I have cut down the edges, and filled with lite drywall spackle.

After I put the motor on I was shocked at how heavy the plane felt so I brought my son down the bathroom scale and we weighed it, right with out covering on the wing, radio gear, wheels and no gas tank the plane is 11.5 lbs. I figure there is another 3 - 4 pounds of gear that needs to be added, so flying weight will be around 15 - 16 lbs, right in the middle of the recommended 14 - 17 lb range.
