Goodmorning all...I am beginning to layout the materials list for a wing stand to construct the RV-8 wing. I will be following the design posted by Rudi....(Nice work by the way, Rudi). My question is....not knowing how much an RV-8 wing weighs, I am unsure what gauge of steel to use. I am thinking 3/16" for the rectangular and angle stock, and 1/4" for the aluminum angle stock??? Is this about right, or is it overkill???
