Thanks for posting Steve.
Did you make up the alignment blocks for the leading edge?
If so, would you be interested in makeing up a set to sell to me.

That is a pretty slick jig set-up

Nice jig!!

It's super easy to make too! Check you my earlier viedeos where I talk about building it. Here's the construction series. I am adding new videos as I build.

The kit is of Yak 9D from Wings on Strings. Yes, I'm using CYA. I even made a review of CA's:

Very cool.  For those interested, on the Youtube vids, if you look to the right of Steven's name you will notice "12 videos" click on that and you will see more of this build. Thanks for posting Steven.

Very very nice Steve.  That is the YAK9 kit if I am not mistaken.   This is a very good way to build the wing on that kit or any other kit.  You really can't build a crooked wing by using this method.  It is simple and very efficient.
Wonderful job on the videos Steve and we need more folks like you to share methods like this.  Just wanted to say thank you for the help you have given me...

Mike

Hi, Steve! Taking this opportunity to thank you for the in-depth report on different CYAs.

I like the simplicity and practicality of your wing jig. (I must have started 3 different concepts, this is the one that makes sense!)
