Paint looks good, just needs more. I like the yellow. Cheers, Jim

getting too low on the echo bond glue to start the top fabric of the right wing. So while waiting for an order of it I made a trip to sherwin williams for some paint. After testing it on some scrap fabric I felt brave enough to brush a coat on the vertical fin. I plan to brush the first coat on to get it into the fabric then spray the second and if needed the third coat on.

I did a little bit more wet sanding on the elevators one has two coats of primer now and is ready for some color the other only has one coat on it.
The echobond came in as well so I worked late and got the fabric glued onto the top of the right wing. A few passes of the iron and it will be ready for rib stitching and tapes.

more rib stitching. one rib with the long strait needle one rib with the curved needle. the ribs with the compression braces have to have the curved needle used since they block the path of the long one.
