New Skin

Leah and I did some more sanding on the right wing today.  Neal was kind enough to give me some scrap 1.5 mm plywood to use for the new skin.  After supper I started cutting out the new plywood.  Did some more cleaning up on the wing and got the skins fitted.  We got the lower skin in place and the epoxy is curing at this moment.  Hopefully it looks good in the morning and it stays warm enough to put the top skin on soon!

Update!

Here is a picture of the new skin in place.  It looks pretty nice to me, still needs some sanding and touch up around the edges but it'll do.
