Tedious but once I got the system figured out, it didn't take all that long. |

Well, after about 9600 "stiches" and over 200 surface tapes, (but who's counting), I believe that I can move on. |

Biplane Guy, I 've been down the slope for decades (Used to be a plastic modeler). Example here ( a week of my life that I'll never get back) is of the rigging clevises for my Loening. Each clevis took 9 separate operations and three jigs to make. But it's FUN!!! |

Boy, I am glad that the wings don't have any rivets! Used up 1 1/2 sheets of the Micromark rivets to get to this point. I thnik that it will take about another 30 inches of rivets to finish up. |
