Basic front fuselage section is now complete, motor box added.
Next stage was to join the rear & front sections, after a bit of head scratching I
decided the best option was to use the wing as a jig.
Wing was set at zero incidence and fuselage halves aligned and also set at zero incidence.
Once satisfied all was o.k the joint was glued and left overnight to fully set.

Superb work Colin, most would have binned the model, just goes to show what can be achieved with a bit of balsa bashing.

Sad these days that only a few people will ever feel the satisfaction of resurrecting a bin bag job!
