Henry Struck's 1937 Benny Boxcar in 47 inch span

The fully assembled wing, sheeted and capstripped.  The leading is angled so that no sanding should be needed prior
to installing the leading edge sheeting.   Shear webbing is not installed in this photo.   All joints in the wing should have aliphatic
glue applied with a 1/4 inch stiff paint brush at this point in the construction.  

Parts for the stabilizer and elevator.  The leading edges are tapered, be careful to install them in the proper orientation.



Starting construction.  1/32 shims are placed between the stabilizer rear spar and the elevator spar to allow clearance for movement.



Basic assembly complete, tack glued with thin CA only.
