The ribs and spars have been glued together and the leading edge is being installed.  I have changed the plan to use a laminated leading edge as the
single thickness is too stiff for the curve and draws the tips forward.  More soft wood needed here.




A sheet of 1/64 ply wrapped in Saran Wrap was placed between the stabilizer and elevator spars to keep the proper clearance.



Small parts are best installed by sticking them on the end of an exacto knife.  The little glue fork is helpful here so you don't glue the part to the knife.
