It might seem overkill to have one entry here for just sanding the bottom spar cap. Hey, it took a few days.
I made the layup very slightly proud of the canard top knowing I could sand it back. More work than I thought but it means I’ll be able to skin it and use less filler than otherwise.
I have slightly gone into the soft blue foam while sanding. Final filler will sort that out after the canard is skinned. The final shape has to be my very best workmanship. There is still some work to do getting the end pices feathered into the canard profile and of course rechecking that we are still all straight.
I also need to make some VOR antenna decisions. Hmmm not sure yet if its going on the top or bottom of the canard.

Lots of sanding
A good cap shape
