Building up another wing - Ridge Runt

Thought I'd share. As I have done in the past I use Wing Helper to get the basics for my wing panel, then export it to a DXF and import that into my CAD where I assemble the parts and draw up some of the more complex items we like to put into our wings. Wing Helper makes this much easier, but I really need to nail down the basics of the wing before jumping into CAD for the fine tuning. I do wish Wing Helper could export cleaner paths for the airfoils, they come in with about a zillion points to define the curves, but that isn't much of an issue either.

From here I'll work up the rest of the features I'd like to incorporate.
