Barry, I made a rotisserie for my wings. I bolted two aluminum angles to the WAFs. These were then bolted to a piece of 1/2-inch plywood. I drilled a 1/2-inch hole in the plywood about where the wing CG might be and bolted that to another piece of plywood that was in turn screw-nailed to a heavy duty saw horse. At the wing tip, a 1/2-inch pipe nipple, three inches long was bolted to the hole for the tip light fixture with fender washers on each end. The pipe rested on the edge of an aluminum angle screw-nailed to the edge of a wooden packing box. A saw horse may also work. The fender washer on the end of the pipe nipple keeps the pipe on the aluminum angle. I used a C-clamp to clamp the two pieces of plywood at the wing root to position the wing at any needed angle. Be sure to put a stop nut on the pivot bolt so it won't come off. Allow room for the wing trailing edge to clear the saw horse and the floor. I found this fixture to be easy to make, effective and really cheap. The rotisserie allows one person to easily flip the wing to any angle for painting, sanding and other prep work...and the wing surface rests on nothing.

I did not allow enough drying time and the paint was too soft leaving marks in the paint work. Bugger. So I am going to strip them and repaint them again and offcourse the weather is terrible for painting. Regards Barry Kruyssen
