Yup! :lol: But it still works...

Nearly finished the fus. Here is my alternative way of pulling the nose in. 4" G-Cramps and some wood. Also, the Ross-Coupe motor compartment.

The wings are tricky. I don't use superglue, so stick (pun) with white glue. The problem here is that you have to do it a bit at a time. Assembling the composite ribs is easy. Gluing them to the roughened aly tubes is too, except I had one upside down and had to rip it apart quick. Result, a bent aly tube with an end that is part closed. Just need a steel rod that fits closely inside and tap it a few times with a hammer. They are very soft so be warned.



This proved an ideal weight for holding down on the F18 packers. Belonged to mi Grandma.

I like Phil's approach to ironing out the problem but what you need is something which applies its force across the whole area rather than locally. For years I've kept copies of yellow pages. They are heavy, large and flexible conforming perfectly to the profile and a pile of them do a perfect job, especially when sheeting wings.

PS yell.com doesn't work at all

Almost there now, just the top of the wings to cover
