Jim Hill built two little mini sawhorses to hold up the wing while he installed it. They had a little foam padding around the top cross member, and you could even cut it into an airfoil shape if you were a stickler. One of them needs to be exactly the right height to match the stub wing, the other a few inches taller, corresponding to somewhere near the tip or inboard of there. To get started you just balance a wing on the short one, which will allow you lots of wiggle room to get the bottom bolts in, then put the taller one in place and slide it in until the upper holes line up. I've only put my wings on twice, but I've used this method twice and found it to be pretty easy. I'm sure there are other ways though. I also use a #3 Phillips screwdriver to help line things up first, then wiggle it around until I get a long carriage bolt through the hole, then replace that with the "real" AN bolts. It's not a picnic, but not worthy of a divorce either... Mark Langford n5...@hiwaay.net website www.n56ml.com
