Looks great, congrats on the kit!

A suggestion, I would ream the cups for the Slat bearings now, before you skin the wings. They are easy to get to now you'll save a TON of aggravation later. I'm working on my Slats now (on pre built wings) and have several of those cups giving me fits because I can't get to them.

Good luck on the build! Be sure to post pics here as you go...
