This is looking good! Good work on the covering. Might need to sand those wing tips a bit. |

What they said - nice job. |

is there a way to scientifically configure the right position of the fin and stabilizer instead of eye balling it like I do? |

Brian, make a jig out of stiff cardboard to hold surfaces square, horizontal, and perpendicular until the glue sets😋 |

Great job Brian. The wing floats are nicely trimmed and the tissue covering is excellent. Practice makes perfect. This is a very good example. |

thanks sky, it's the knowledge from the veterans like you guys that have enabled me to gain my experience. |

Very nice covering job. That red cloth really makes the plane pop in the photo. What will you paint it with? |

thanks biplane, i'll probably paint it Japanese navy green with an airbrush. |
