    Instead of scratch building wing struts and flying wires, I ordered a set of wing struts and hardware package for a Hangar 9 25% Super Cub. Got them today and I think it will work out great. Struts: http://hangar-9.com/Products/Default.aspx?ProdID=HAN454010 Harware Package which includes the...

    Made a little progress tonight. Got the last spar and the leading and trailing edge glued on the left side wing half. Time permitting, I'll start gluing up the right wing half tomorrow morning before work.

    Got the better half of a wing framed and glued up tonight. If I can get the right side half as straight and level as the left side, I think this baby will fly.

    Got the wing plans laid out and covered with wax paper. But now I'm scared to get started. That is one big ass wing! Pic doesn't do it justice.

    Got the elevators framed up. I used epoxy on the dowel joiner. Titebond III on everything else. Also used some thin CA to tack in place while the Titebond dries.
