Hi,
Does anyone know the weight for a single completed model 7 wing ?
I'm estimating 200 lbs for a single finished wing.

I'd estimate 75 pounds at most, with a flapperons and lift strut attached.
I'd agree with about 75lbs at most. I have moved a lot of wings around lately and they don't weigh much but akward to handle by yourself.
Curious why your wondering about weight?

Doesn't weigh anything while flying,
I'm going to be replacing the lift strut to wingspar rod end bearings . I don't plan on removing the entire wing and am making a wing support for outboard of the spar attach points. The spar to fuselage carry through tube pins will remain in place during this switch. I think I will be removing the lift and jury strut.
So trying to figure out how substantial of a support I require.

I used my head a few times when adjusting for washout.
I estimate my model 4 wings weigh less than 50 pounds each. I use a 1 X 4 with a piece of foam stapled to one end to prop up a wing tip when removing a strut. I have a helper stand there and hold it just to be sure nothing slips.
