Lots of construction going on here, but I'm sure it's all worth it in the long run. |

Ready for the spars |

The aileron spar is glued in place after the two framing ribs, W-6 and W-14, are in place.This is 1/8" x 5/16" and is different than the plan calls for. Blocks keep the spar straight. |

Eight W-1's. 1/4" rear risers and 3/16" front risers to keep the leading and trailing edges elevated and level during construction |

THe spars and trailing edge are 1/8" x 1/4", the leading edge is 1/2" x 3/16". |

3/32" strip glued on both sides of the larger ribs.I left excess on both the front and rear of the ribs as they will be cut to fit individually. |

1/16" strip glued on both sides to strengthen a very weak spot |

Substantial wing, unlike the average EZ frame. There are quite a few ribs here, nice work! |

I think it came in the mail. Handy for fine tuning the notches. |

Whew is right but it's done. I feel like a machine when I'm doing this but I'm always pleased with the results. The spaces between stringers were all close to 1/4" or 3/16" so most of the infill is with that size wood. The space between the formers was fairly close all around cause being one piece, they were easy to align to 90 degrees and that helped, too. It still needs to be sanded and minor gaps filled with glue and then the blocks will be added and carved before filler is added. |

You are a very patient, puppy! Seeing the filler plugs in your sleep yet? |
