I stored mine almost exactly the same way that Andy did, but I had the rack
built onto the top of and made part of my epoxy bench, I stacked the wings
on top of each other, winglets down of course, with some foam in between for
cushioning, worked great, got to build my XLRG in a 2 car garage that way
( kept the nested fuselage halves on top of the bench during wing build) but
when it came to attaching the wings to do the strakes, it had to go to the
airport.....

Phil,
I didn't hang mine from the rafters. I built my own "wall brackets" out
of 2x4s. They can be seen at:

Picture 147 shows them pretty well.
Best,
Andy
Rear windows are now installed.

My wings for an XL, with winglets detached, will arrive soon and need to
be stored. I wonder if any of you fine builders have stored them by hanging
below your garage rafters, as Scott Baker has suggested. We do have room,
the spanners are high enough. The first choice would be to store them
above, resting them on the spanners with proper, carpeted support. But
there may not be maneuvering room to get them up there. If anyone has hung
them below, do you have any photos you can email? How did you do it?
Thanks all.
