Here is a shot of the working angle. This was so much better than leaning over the edge. Kim's idea. Notice the heater behind Kim, this was key to keeping the temps even though the temps outside were in the 40's.

To make our backs happy and life 1000% easier we tilted the fuselage. Notice I used my monowheel trailer as a jig. A tow strap 4" wide was used in the rear to hold the tail. This was rock solid.

Rolled out on the grass. Notice the tail wheel is still there. I left it in due to not having the stacks of cash to hold the nose down.

Dont judge me! You know you do it too. Anyways, was trying to see if my weight would cause the nose to come down. As you can see she likes being a tail dragger.
