After marking the stab's position on the fuselage, I "cut" the covering with soldering iron. This way there's no chance of an Xacto cutting into the wood and weakening the stab. (The stab's fit into the fuse was very tight -- great!)

Wing cutout...On each cutout, I left a 1/4" of covering and then folded it insidea nd ironed it down to ensure a tight seal.

Tail cutout -- I also ironed down a small edge here to keep the covering from peeling back.

Tail installed. I sealed the gaps on every surface using clear Ultracote.

Tailwheel closeup....The tailwheel was installed in the rudder before the hinges were glued by drilling a small hole in the front of the rudder for the tailwheel to stick into, then screwed to the bottom of the fuse.
