Why take all the fun out of building? Sanding should be appreciated. On a more serious note has anyone here built a set of 1B wings? As far as I know there is only one 1B variant in progress in Finland and the builder hasn't updated his site in quite a while. Definitely planning on going with CF for more tortional strength along a longer outer wing. Does anyone know how many B variants have been built besides Ken's original? Seems the data was taken from the first one built and there isn't much to go on other than a few pages. The focus would be building the transition from a 5048 main spar to the airfoil used on the outer wing and obviously the technique to build it. Is there a separate construction manual for the 1B or is the addendum simply a set of drawings? Bart Ferguson location in the addy
