Huzzah!

With the shop projects winding down, I finally got to work on the plane. 
 The wing construction table, after two moves, had become pretty 
rickety, so I had plans to rebuild the table.  I had installed an 
electric hoist over the wing to raise and lower the wing panel during 
the construction.  This time, I used it to raise the entire wing off the 
table.  The saddles had only been marginally done, were improved.  I 
painted epoxy in the saddle and trowled in some epoxy with micro.  I 
then lowered the wing back onto the table.  This will make the saddles 
to be exactly shaped to the curve of the upper wing surface.  Tomorrow, 
I plan to rework the center box of the wing table.  

More to follow.
