Brief Description:  Wing stand

The wing needs to be supported above the floor so work can begin on the leading edge nose ribs.

Scrap timbers have been screwed to the sides of the saw horses and the work bench. The offsets at the top create solid shelves for the main spar to rest on. Though not seen in the photos, there are actually 3 x support stations.

I decided to epoxy a nose rib at each end of the spar and one in the centre as well as the 5/8" x 5/16" leading edge timber into the rib slots. To keep it all square I clamped the ribs to scrap timbers covered in plastic and then elastic bands over the tops. When dried the nose rib structure will be more solid and less likely to slip and slide around when adding the remaining nose ribs.
