Les, I hope you're doing well. I followed your project blog (and a couple other Woodstock blogs) while they were available.
When Soaring Magazine published the Woodstock poster I had it on my wall for years. I wanted one of those little birds so bad, if my father had let me drag a bandsaw up to our little second-story apartment I probably would have covered the living room in sawdust.
I still have in mind to retool the Woodstock design with a carbon fiber spar, and maybe some other concessions to the declining availability of good quality wood. Maybe someday when I have some free time.

Bob,
Good to hear from you again. I am well, but not flying much anymore. I hate to sell the my Woodstock items, but I guess it is time. What you describe, what I would call a Woodstock refit project, would be lots of fun. I have always felt there should be many more of these little birds flying.
I hope you are doing well.
Les
