Hi Gail-
Welcome aboard!
My wings are stored in an unfinished area of the house, which made it easy
to suspend them from the floor joists overhead. Each wing is in 2 saddles
made from rectangular carpet scraps with 2 x 2's attached to the short
ends. These saddles are suspended with ropes tied off to sinkers driven
into the joists. The whole arrangement was made entirely of scrap
materials, took maybe a half hour to fabricate, and has served it's purpose
for years (unfortunately!) with no issues.
For the fuselage, I mounted large castors to the wooden false / stub spars
that secured the fuse to it's shipping crate. I also attached a block of
wood to the tail wheel spring with a bolt through the bushing. Minimal
fuss, yet makes the fuselage easy to work on and move around the shop.
If either of these solutions do anything for you, I can send you pix direct.
Also, be sure to sign up for the RV list. There is much more traffic there
than here on the RV-8 list.
To search the archives, go to the Matronics home page and wander around
the web lists area. You'll find links to the browser as well as the search
engine. WRT the above, take a look at how your initial msg came through.
The first thing you will want to do is make sure you have an appropriate
subject line, so that others can reference / read / delete your postings as
appropriate to what they're looking for. The second is that if you are
getting the daily digest version of the lists, as I am, when you reply to
the list PLEASE only resend the quotes that are pertinent to your question
or answer. Otherwise, you may well be re-posting 80 messages if it's been
a busy day.
Good luck with the project, and don't be shy about asking questions- there
is an incredible wealth of knowledge and experience on these lists!

This might not make it to the list...
I'm building (standard) wing stand and cradles right now. Started tonight.
See dwg 12A. Looks like enough info - use the nose ribs and go oversize,
with a foam strip for chafing.
My rev is dated 10/5/00. Should do for the quickbuild as well.
