| There is a critical part of a biplane construction endeavor. That being the fitting of the wings to each other and to the fuselage. The past few days I have addressing this stage of Ogre construction in an hermit like manner. |

| Locked in my small basement “man cave” located next to the furnace, I have been installing internal pulleys for the aileron cables, covering the wings with poly-span, and finishing aileron construction. |

| I buried Gumby in a snow drift while I pondered and implemented this critical part of the build. No room for the myth and hijinks associated with his presence, as an error in thought at this critical juncture, could spell disaster for Ogre’s completion and final form. |

| When components fall into place and align with each other in a dry elastically bound fit, you can be fairly certain that all will go well when the wings are placed in bonds of the epoxy molecules in the near future. |
