Hello! I'm posting to ask if anyone's built/used a tool to sand/shave a wing leading-edge from the rough. Our Dave's been rasping it from outlines drawn on the ends, using a template made from gusset material to confirm his work. We've got several devoted people putting a lot of creativity into our Piet, and I thought this'd be an opportunity to contribute to the project, and also contribute a little to this list, which has been good to belong to. Thanks! Sincerely, Dave Smith http://www.eaa1279.org/Pietenpol.htm___ ... __________
