Chris - With my lack of insulation the cold starts at the top & works it's
way down - warm hat before socks.

P.S - Have you tried using Cyno outdoors ?

Alas, that would limit the building time Colin. The odd thing about being allergic to CA is that it's not apparent while I'm using it, but creeps up several hours later, usually the early hours of the morning :angry:

Not too much progress today, but I did my reinforcing:



And then deviated from the instructions, they say to put in a lot of the formers and then the bottom, and then the 4mm square corner section that runs the lenght of the fuselage, top and bottom! I decided to do the corner section first.

I thought I'd get the wing skins done today in between other jobs, and these two parts are to be glued together:



For the life of me I cannot work out why one half has clean cut points and the other half, that is to be glued to it, is a 'mountain range'. Am I missing something very simple? They have done this on the upper and lower skins on both wings.

There must be an error in the laser files, or the cutter is misinterpreting the code. I had a file once that had a straight line on the screen but was always cut as a curve. I can't work out how these lines have ended up so ragged and not picked up and corrected..poor quality control.

I'm sure they'll slot together well enough even if it does require a little sanding

I just can't do that, it will bother me too much, so I'll make new bits that hopefully will fit better. Don't worry I know I have a problem :S
