Well gang, today I finally finished my right wing. Its a great feeling to know I made every single part by hand (except the fiberglass tip and the hardware). Most of the parts for the left wing are made, so it should go together more quickly. I couldn't have reached this milestone without the good people on this list who took the time to answer my questions and offer much needed advice and inspiration. Thanks to you all.

Well done Dave and thanks for sharing you project with us. it gives us
all a lift!
I have just completed a day of bending using my Clay Bending Brake, I
cant believe how simple it is to use and the accuracy that can be
achieved - thanks for giving the details I think a lot of builders are
going to find scratch building is not a difficult as first thought, just
more time is required.
Best regards

Looks great but I have a question and can't really tell from the photo. Have you riveted the flap to the wing?

No Gig, it's just setting there for the photo. I'll wait until the wing is attached before final flap installation.
