I have excerpted the following statement from the EAA Sportair assembly
workshop info from the Aircraft Spruce website.  It refers to vacuum bagging
the wing during closeout.  I don't think we do this on the 235/320/360 (do
we?).  Do you ES and IV guys and gals do this?

Excerpt:  "The main portion of the workshop will be "hands-on" experiencing
the techniques necessary to assemble the airplane. Saturday morning we will
begin with an introduction to basic composite construction. You will learn
how to cut fiberglass, cut and shape foam, and practice basic laminating
techniques. You will mix resins, make slurries, and other basics.  Saturday
afternoon you will be taught basic bonding. You will also receive a
demonstration in vacuum bagging. A small airfoil project will be constructed
using the bonding techniques required to build the Lancair. You will actually
bond ribs and close a vacuum bagged skin just as you will do in closing a
wing on the airplane."
