On step 26, the directions are to mark 2 1/8 on the wing tip and 3 1/8 on the wing root from the L.E. Is that the center, front edge or back edge of the spar. There is an image showing the wing and spar, however there are 3 marks - don't know which is 3 1/8".
Thank you in advance for any input.

Thanks for the build thread! Wish I had seen that before I started, This is quite a change for me as I have scratch built balsa and cardboard planes for many years - had to adjust to iron on coverings and now, no covering and no plans. Can't wait to get this one in the air - thanks again.

No problem! That is what I do;) If you get stuck on anything or are not sure on something just ask!
