Default TIP: Horizontal Stabilizer - HS Paint Jig

Lots of ways to skin this cat, but here's one way...

I like to position parts so they are easy to paint. The HS needs painted on both sides as well as inside the spar channel and end ribs. Two lengths of angle and a single steel post welded to a plate allows positioning the HS flat, or with the leading or trailing edge up, all at a comfortable spray height.

As always Dan, your tips are great! I'm really going to annoy you with questions when it comes time to do my glass work.
