Keith,
The Picture is of the professionally made model which I copied. More
details can be found on HYPERLINK
"http://www.wingdolly.reach.net/prices.html"http://www.wingdolly.reach.n
et/prices.html . Mine did not have vertical adjustment which I don=92t
find a problem as I am only using it for the one airplane. I made it so
that the dolly sits about 1 foot inboard of the end of the wing with the
=91plane rigged. Up and down adjustment can be made by moving it further
inboard or outboard. I made the cradle by taking a splash moulding of
the wing at this point using polyester resin & chopped strand mat with
an odd layer of bid and reinforcing it with some tubing glassed onto the
reverse side. My pivot point is about 20in. back from the leading edge.
I also had input from Bob Harrison G-PTAG and William Mills G-HOFC who
have also made similar dollies.
Hope this helps.

Hi Rickard,
This dolly looks very nice. Any chance of some more detailed pictures
and or drawings showing pivot points, height adjustment and locking,
dimensions etc?
Regards,

XS Mono, fuse top on, wings ready to close.

Jerry,
I made a wing dolly based on designs I found on the =91net and with
input
---From other fliers over here. Couple of pic=92s attached. Works a treat
and I can single handedly rig and derig in about 15 minutes. Cost me
about very little for the bits plus a couple of days work to put
together.
