Darren,
I used my own version of the attached. Worked brilliantly. A bit of
work to knock it up but worth it.
Note the wire brace from the rear wing pin onto the frame. . . . very
important.
Cheers

Rotisseries are the best; especially for prep work; you could also just buy a couple of padded automotive panel stands and spray the bottom first then flip the wing over a few days later when cured and spray the top; the paint will flow out nicely off the gun... kingsley's method is the best option as the paint remains soft for six weeks after painting to leaving it on panel stands may leave an impression mark... or paint the bottom mount the wing on the fuse and paint the top and leave it cure.

I put this together out of wood which happened to be laying around without breaking a sweat…key components were two, 16 foot long truss joists and some plastic pipe cut offs…not precious, but it did the job...

I hasten to say that the photos I posted of the rotisserie set-up were
originally offered by Michael Parkin in the UK and the idea was NOT mine.
As stated in my post, I used my own version based on Michael's so credit
has to go to Michael for the idea.
Cheers
Kingsley
