Brief Description:  Build Wing Installation Sawhorses

Built a couple of sawhorses in the garage on Total Eclipse day and today to help me mount the wings. I'm using classic wood sawhorses because they have to be 2 custom sizes. The short one will rest the wing slightly below the fuselage. The tall one will ride on a furniture dolly and balance the wing so that I can tip it along the span of the wing to align with the center spar in the fuselage. Being on rollers allows me to maneuver the wing in/out, left/right, and with a twist to get a precise alignment. The short sawhorse is complete with the legs out near the ends of the 4 foot span for stability. The tall one is not yet complete since I won't know how far apart to set the legs until I place them on the dolly, which is out at the hangar. Both spans are covered in padded carpet to protect the wing while it rests on them.
