| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 13-Sep-07 19:00 |  | | Views : 820 | | moostang....I think the wings are there, anything else will be hidden when the Mig is painted. |

| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 12-Sep-07 16:46 |  | | Views : 897 | | Even though I worked outside my eyes cannot see imperfections until after a coat of primer. We are 235 hrs into this bird. |
| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 12-Sep-07 16:44 |  | | Views : 822 | | pb...Yes the Mig has come a long way...thanks. If my eyes would only work better. As hard as I tried, methinks another bout of filler, sanding, and primer will be needed. |

CA alone would not hold the weight horizontally. The wing pegs and glue held the angle perfectly if vertical. I hung the Mig then allowed gravity to drizzle ep |

| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 10-Sep-07 20:36 |  | | Views : 718 | | We replaced the windscreen. I could not live with the smudges. Making one was easier the second time around! |
| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 09-Sep-07 17:40 |  | | Views : 788 | | The three holes in the side of the wing root help align the wings when they are installed...soon, I hope! |
