Default RV-9 Fuselage Rotisserie length

Hello all, I'm setting up my garage for a slow build RV9 fuselage. Could someone please give me the length of their fuselage rotisserie set up from one end to another? I searched but maybe used the wrong key words...

Thanks in advance,
Mike

Not sure about the 9 but my rotisserie is about two feet longer than the fuse. I have John's Rotisserie. Toally awesome.

The feet are the additional 2'. The rotisserie itself is only about 6" past the forward and aft end.
You won't need a rotisserie for quite a while.

I didn't bother with a rotisserie but did make a mobile stand for it.

Here is a picture of what I made.

Default RV-14 Rotisserie Just Completed

Below are a couple pictures of my rotisserie for my RV-14. Just completed this weekend. I know its not a 9, but maybe it will help. Great advice from VAF and works great.
