Cliff, I have looked through your site before, and I must say that your workmanship
is impeccable, something to truly be striven for. I especially liked your
throttle quadrant. I will reconsider the flop, plus it would allow me to hide
a handle in there as well. I suppose that this is all a balance act of weight
versus smoothness of flight.
Tools, that was exactly what I was looking for! Now I can begin to coat my wood
(so to speak) and protect it. I would rather use Stewart Systems just because
of some bad experiences with MEK.
You guys have all been awesome, and though I may or may not use all of your ideas,
they have all been helpful in making the decisions.

Mike;
You asked about whether you should build the cabane struts splayed or keep them
vertical if you build a wider flop section than standard. My two cents: keep
them vertical, for two reasons: (1) if you keep them vertical, you can tilt
them back if you need to adjust the wing position relative to the CG to get it
where you want it. If you build them splayed, the geometry will not readily
permit that adjustment. It can be done, but not as easily. (2) if you keep them
vertical, all of the fittings remain as per plans with less fussing with angles.
Structurally, I don't think there is much difference but it's a little easier to
analyze forces in members that are perpendicular to the load imposed on them
(vertical cabanes).
