Spent a good part of the day out in the shop, planing and sanding. Nice work bench, coffee pot, oldies music and a good drafting chair. A few neighbors stopped by to see what was going on. Made for a great day.
Did the wings first.
Profile
Taper to the tip.
They came out nice.
Then the stabilizor
Broke a couple cross bits and had to replace them. Some of the balsa struts were of pretty soft wood.
Then the fin
Set the wings up with the center section and the tips propped up on 1 9/16" blocks.
Clamped the right and left sides to the center.
Removed the blocks and they stayed right where they were. PERFECT Dihedrel on both wings with no sanding, fillers or adjustments. I can't believe it!!
Tomorrow, start to spray a clear coat on it. Sanding sealer, sand lightly, then a couple semi gloss clear coats. Then assemble the large components.
