When I was researching and planning on building an RV-7 I saw lots of people who shared tools and received hand me down fixtures from other builders etc. I never thought it would happen to me, but I have been very lucky and people in this tight nit group are very generous. I went up to Arlington to help a fellow builder mount his wings on his 7, and his plane sure is looking good. Lots of inspiration for me, but best of all, he had one of the best wing cradles I have seen and no longer has a use for it. So perfect for me, I snapped it up and the timing couldn't be better. My wings will come off the racks and go into the Cradle in a week or so. The wings will be in the cradle for about a year or so, then onto the next builder the cradle will go.
