A litle cockpit detail goes a long way.

Papering went extremely well on the Buffalo.

This is turning out to be a good kit from Dave Diels.

Some trial fitting of wings and tail feathers. The cowling wood has been added and the intakes have been cut out.

I partially added balsa to the fuselage.

Ready for trimming and sanding a doping.

The wings layed out for building.

The tail feathers with coat after coat of AeroGloss Sanding Sealer and Primer and sanded and sanded.

I tossed the very light Diels stringers which I constantly break during construction, replacing them with Guillows stringers from a series 500 kit that will never get built. I've read many complaints about Guillows balsa, but I've found the toughness of the Guillows stringers to be perfect for my hamfisted building.

The fuselage is coming along.

Instead of stick and paper I decided to make the "scale" tail feathers out of 3/16 sheet. Some trimming and fitting will have to be done on the horizontal stab.

Making copies that allows one to cut apart and work with small parts of the plans.
