Expecting my QB 9A fuselage this week. Have been searching for plans for a cradle. Have seen a few photos but nothing with dimensions. Anyone with a plan, measurements, etc. that would work for a 9A?

Peter,

I've updated the "Things to Consider" page of my web site with the dimensions you asked about.

Good luck. I would give you mine but told Radomir he could have it. The big strap can be bought, cheep, from WT Tools off of Clanton Rd. Don't forget to buy a small strap to hold the tail down. It would stink to step in it and have it tip forward.

Bill-
Looking at your site it looks like your original cart was taller. Did you cut it down to 8" just to make it easier to get into? When you fit the wings, was it the shorter or taller version? Did it work out OK at that height? I'm close to that stage now nad have been contemplating building a saw horse but this may be just as easy. Thanks for the idea.
