Default RE: Super Lazy Ace

Well, I got most of the Stab built. I decided to cap strip the ribs to give the covering more support. It will maintain the airfoil better with less sag. This thing is huge, 540 sq. in.! The Stab is bigger than a Q-500 wing.
So I have not recieved my wood yet, (I used stuff I had lying around to build the stab) hopefully Monday. I did get my covering material from aircraft spruce. Wow! I got a lot. I ordered 10 yards X 60' . I should have plenty. It looks very good. Very tight weave and it should be quite easy to work with. I am excited about the fabric and I certainly chose the right product here. I only spent $32.50 for all of that covering!
Sorry for the big picture. Not sure why it did that.
