The 3/16" sheet is cut to the distance between formers. Most of the spaces between stringers is either 3/16" or close. A few are larger so I'll also use 1/4" wood. |

I soaked the bottom stringers in water mixed with some Windex to soften them for the curves.I'm also uising "kicker" with the CA. These are probably the biggest PIA so far. |

Per plan except that the rear of the nacelle will be a solid block instead of stringers. |

| Except for the 1/16" stringers, way too soft, all the wood is excellent. The 1/16" balsa formers feel more like 3/32" wood. Most of the printing is precise although some of it is sorta blurred, as if there's too much ink. That's not a problem. I'm really impressed with the fit of the cut out parts where the nacelle meets the wing. |
