wing weight

Gents,

My wings are at a remote storage location (shop way toooo small) and now somebody did ask me what is the weight of the wing (structure only).
Does somebode have this piece of information?

My QB wings probably weigh 30-35# each (I can carry them around myself, though a bit awkwardly). That's with tanks and most of the skins riveted on, no flaps or ailerons. Donno if that helps, good luck!
 
I am waiting for my wing kit. I am thinking of making a movable aluminum extrusion stand instead of the floor to ceiling 4 x4 set up. I have seen WAY too many 2x2, 2x4 and 4x4s warp way out of shape after I got them home. They sell these things so green, I swear you can still hear the birds chirping. Any how, to help design these, what is the distance between the rear spar and the front spar ?

Does any one have pictures / plans for one they built?
