| rayl | Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian | Build | 25-Jan-16 23:18 |  | | Views : 969 | | Another view of the saddles. Out of scrap balsa I built 4 different sanding blocks fair teh airfoil. If some ham-handed idiot wouldn't have crushed several ribs during the process, requiring replacments, I would hav been done much sooner. Now on to the strut & rigging attachment points. |
| rayl | Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian | Build | 25-Jan-16 23:14 |  | | Views : 1023 | | Spent most of the day sanding and strueing up the wings. Never done this before. My enigineering & woodworking background has proven the worth of "jigs" over the years. Here is one of teh wings supported by three saddles that allowed me to get the bottom of the leading & trailing edges truly flat and also make sure that the undercamber of the airfoil was consistent. |
