I am getting ready to build my wing jig and I was hoping to gather some advice.
I have decided to build the both wings at a once and I have decided on a four post jig so that I can walk between the wings without having to crawl around or under a jig post. The four post design is also necessary for other reasons which I won't bore you with here.
My question is, how much space do you think I should plan for between the wing panels? My limitation is that the overall width of both wings in the jig has to fit in a space roughly 9' wide and still allow enough room on all sides of the wings to work. My current design has an 18" space between the vertical beams at each end, which results in a 25" distance between the bottoms of the wings.... do you think is that enough space between the wings to work within, or should I go wider at the expense of the available space on the outside?
TIA!
