Scale should have scale sound if possible.

Not much progress to report. Just making a lot of shavings and dust for a while now! Shaping and sanding leading edges, trailing edges, and various other surfaces.

Spent today with Hysol and Titebond on several projects, including the Beaver.

Also made a quick and easy way to hang the Timber.

Still moving at the speed of molasses on a cold winters day…

First the motivational shot! Both wings set at the correct incidence and with a 100+ inch span.

Then back to “tiling” or weighing down the skin with floor tiles until the glue dries. Used Titebond for the wing skins, both edge gluing the 48” sheets and fixing to the spars and ribs.

Looking good brother. I have to commit that tile trick to my memory. Great idea.
