I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Several notches had to be adjusted to keep the stringers in line but that's expected and didn't cause a problem. Former #3 was about 1/16" high on the beam so it got sliced a bit more. Next step is to infill the bottom center section so the first two blocks can be put in place.

Well, that was easy enough. This is all the stringers and there are six (6) balsa blocks to be added and carved to complete the fuselage per plan. At this point it really wouldn't need much sanding before covering.

THe top sub formers are installed in the same manner. Wing and stabilizer outline parts are then added. There are 4 or 5 more small pieces to add before adding the stringers.

Once the formers front and back are in place, the 3/16" x 1/16" strip is glued into place on each side on the bottom. The remaining sub formers are then glued into place.

Then add the formers to the front.

There are no instruction as normal, only illustrations of what the structure looks like. So I start by gluing in the former at the leading edge of the wing.

After correcting the two pieces of the beam, I painted over the marked lines cause they are off. I then marked where they should be.
