I finalized the drawings for the tail section and stained the wood for the turtle deck and tail stringers so I'm ready to start building again. These parts didn't really need to be stained since they will be covered but I love the look of stained wood and thought it would help the structure show through the covering. The tail sections are 3/8" thick at the hinge line and taper at the LE, tip and TE to basically form a slight airfoil. I also painted the LG parts black.
