David,
Thanks for the tips & pictures. Any other pictures you can find of your plane would be greatly appreciated. Nice looking plane you have there. Looks like with some filling, sanding, priming and painting, your plane should be ready for spring with no problem...
David
Anytime.
I'll get some pictures when I'm at a more
productive point. Actually, in my estimate I'm only about 40% done. The assembly and finish is the most time consuming of course. Not to mention that there is a second one that I need to bring up to this stage...
BTW, check your cores thoroughly. Both my sets were of "questionable" quality and it took some acrobatics to get this wing to line-up symmetrically. If in doubt, I'd toss them and have some fresh ones cut. It's not worth the build time, balsa and materials to end up with a wing that needs to be massaged into symmetry. At the moment I'm ticked off with the stab cores on T2 which I sheeted quickly and realized that one of them was improperly cut [:@] (TE is not straight). I can fix it but it will probably take as much time as building a new one.
David.
