Looking at other plans, I think a solid wing tip would have been easier to construct, but I'm sure there are reasons for the way it has been designed.

Wings Skinned!
I have at last managed to finish skinning the wings. Top sheets were applied over the weekend. Used sandbags to weigh the sheets down as they mould to the profile of the wing. Needed a bit of Lead on the wingtips and clamps to get the sheet to form to the complex curves at that point, but apart from that, the sheets went on quite quickly and easily!
