    Brian, I did a quick search of our forums and came up with this: wing stands

    And from Dan Billingsley's build site these:

    Be careful with the all PVC stands. Dan used them and one stand gave way and dropped his completed wing on the floor causing some damage to the trailing edge.

    The fork that fits into the spars is an ok way to go, but build a wooden or metal base for it (don't use the PVC for the base...too flimsy). There are a few more pictures of the wooden ones if you click on the link Steve gave in his post.

    Brian, My brother and I are going to move the RV-9A to CZL in the porta hangers in October and install the wings. If you can wait until then you can have the wing rack. All you would have to do is move it to the other side of the airport! Also you can have the PVC that fits into the spar. Mine are for the 5 so don't know if they would fit your spars without modifying. You can have those now. See pics.
