Fat Cub weight loss program is in play. Welder is upgrading gear fittings as well as addressing other fuselage issues.
Getting ready to work on the wings. Have a rotisserie fixture designed to connect with the root end spar fittings. Fixture should allow plenty of room for fabric work. Puzzled about best way to support tip end.
Will install lights, and can use the front spar tip end fitting for leading edge support. Friend that recently did a PA18 said he also used the aft spar fitting. Not sure how to make that arrangement without extra fabric patching.
If you've used a rotisserie to support wings during covering, how did you attach to the wing tip end?
