Initial fit up.

How will you join the metal and wood? Tabs, glue of what? How do the wings join as well?

 

[dhal22]

All in good time. Which means I need time to figure it out. I'll post a photo of the wing connection point.

More rib work today. Using a crooked spar piece to size the main wing spar opening.

Forestner bits have to be some of my favorite drill bits ever created.

 

[dhal22]

More test framing last night.

 

[dhal22]

A couple of more pieces added to test fitting.

Kinda looks like progress.

 

[TonyHallo]

The main spar ends will bolt to the connection point in the center of the cabin? How about the rear spars?

 

[dhal22]

Tony, yes on front spars connecting. There are short spar replica pieces fitted in the photos. I'll post details on rear spar tomorrow.

 

[TonyHallo]

That should make for interesting field assembly!
