By the way the test of the black cub with yellow stripes proved black is not going on my planes. I just can't see it.

The top wing laminates have been glued.

Back to the color scheme board?

Don't hold me to it but I think I am going to go with this color scheme, 99.9%.

A little different angle.

Somehow, I don't know how, the last piece of wood was just glued to the top wing. Starting tomorrow I will go back to the fuse and add in strips for the panel screws and such. Then start sanding.

I have built the front of the center cabane. Now for the hard part, the rear piece. Sometimes getting two pieces identical is the hard part

Not in much of a build mood today, but did get the wing cabane mounts done.

Hey guys, over on RCU I am getting some flack about the cabanes not being strong enough being made of just brass. I weigh 170lbs. What ya'll think?

Oh-nevermind-I thought you said the STRUTS were 170 lbs!
The cabanes are fine,Ace...Mine were thin walled automotive fuel line,brazed..Wood'll let go before they do.

Oh, that's funny Earl.

I have spent most of the day sanding and it will probably take most of the day tomorrow.

Ah-choo!

You are using a dust mask right? I risk an asthma attack if I forget.
