How to put second skin on HS?

When I was putting the left skin (HS) on the forward spar assembly, I just stood the skin on its leading edge, and let the other half of the spar stick out in mid air. Now I'm ready to start riveting the right skin, but I don't want to let all the weight of the left skin hang out there. Did you guys make cradles for this?

Ah, never mind. Can't hold up construction while you east-coasters are gettin' yer beauty sleep. I jerry-rigged something.

Hahaha,

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Yah, I had a jig to do it in because I had to!!! My kit was not pre punched like yours!!!

In all seriousness, you will need to cut some plywood to hold it make a "big clothespin" and carpet the inside and it will hold it snugly.
