[N4521U]

Thanks for the kudos fellas. I have the better part of all the decals on, so I may finish if I can manage a day off work tomorrow. Only 8 days left......
I am in need of some info on the Zero.
I have "missplaced" more likely LOST, one of the gear legs. I was thinking of making a jackstand for one side and leaving the bloody leg off.

Does anyone know of the jackstand location under the wings??????

I want to thank all yous guys for looking in, so often and commenting so possitively on my progress.

Do to loosing one leg, Wayne, being the bloke he is, sent me a couple of pictures of Zeros on saw horses in the field. I received them this morning, and being the jigman I am I made three up to finish the build. I could hardly place it on one bloody wheel. So here is the jig and glue up method I used, and a finished pic. And the little extra build to contrast the "used up" one.

I hope I have done justice to your donation Wayne.

Bill
