Made the leading edge cutouts
I marked the cutouts onto the plywood by tracing around the edge of the leading edge pattern. Each cutout is also 4 inches from the outer edge of the plywood, just like the spar cutouts mentioned above. Then I put a new blade in my jig saw and made the cuts, making sure to cut outside the lines to make additional room for the rubber matting that I will put in later. If I had decided to use regular carpet, I probably would have added an additional quarter inch to the outside of the pattern to allow for the thickness of the carpet. You’ll also notice that the cutouts force placement of the wings "bottom side out", so I can still work on the wings while they are in the cradle.
