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?
