Anyone ever tried to assemble one? Or dis-assemble one?

Hi
The Diamant with long wings is a very good aircraft. Not difficult to
rig but you need a good, (steady) *fuselage dolly and 2 good wing

I've helped rig a long wing Diamant a few times. Offhand, I hope
never to do it again............. It may have had something to do
with the owner and the setup, but the wings are heavy - around 180# if
IIRC.
