| Wing making continued....
In the eleventh pic you can see the foam beams that demark the ailerons. The foam is dug out later to leave the gap between aileron and wing.
In number twelve the wing is nearly ready to join. You can see the compression struts glassed onto the bottom skin.
In number thirteen the wing is about to be joined by matching the moulds together. There are wet glass strips around the edge to bond top to bottom.
In number fourteen the moulds have been pulled apart.
In number 15 a completed wing is removed from the mould.
Obviously there will be detail, such as plates welded to the spars to accept the struts which are attached by tapping through from the outside.
I hope this makes sense, and is of some use.
