I built one late in my QB construction and wish I had done it a lot earlier. It eliminates or reduces a lot of bendiing over the longerons to access the inside of the fuselage.

Craig,

Are there plans available for the fuselage rotisserie?

Gail,

I really didn't have anyplans and was not one to document all the details with photos when I was building. It amounted to a little imagination and a trip or two to Home Depot. I also put the whole assembly on casters so it could be rolled around the hanger as needed.

In a word - yes.

Use your imagination to build it (should be fairly simple). I didn't build one, but should have. I kept the fuselage low to the ground on spar inserts with wheels for as long as possible. Something to rotate the fuselage would have been helpful - consider putting it on locking wheels.

There may be one for sale "out there" that would save you time, money and effort.

As far as the builders manual goes - I've always told potential quick builders to not depend on it. It basically says "build wing, attach wing."

Just flew my 8A from Daytona Beach to VT and back. I took a cruise through the Hudson VFR corridor on the way up and flew over JFK at 10.5 on the way back.

Is there any one that needs a wing rack. This is a rack just to hold the wings after they are built, if so I have a set not being used any more. not the rotisserie but still useful.

Simple rotisserie rotates on two 1/2" bolts. Work standing or sitting.

Check the archives – I built mine based on posts and pix from precious posters.
