I got back to work on the wings. I did do a slight redesign but it is still going to have bamboo wing tips as the plan calles for. This is not my first experience with 1930s building techniques. |

This is how I ended up tonight with the cowl fitted, the canopy bows installed and the temporary brace cut out of the cockpit. Today the fuselage...Tomorrow, the wings! |

Working over the same plan, I pinned down my keel and working from back to front, using my right angle tools I put in the formers, after I put the 1/16" square side keel on I took the falf shell off the plan and used the popsicle stick and smalll clamp method to put the other half of the fromers on. |
