| Thanks guys. All covered dry with unthinned dope, then spritzed w/H20. I dope and sand all wood b-4 applying. I had one wrinkle on the bottom wing, which I covered with a patch, notice the front of second and third ribs from the right. |

All Covered. It's been quite some time since I covered a bare skeleton with silkspan. I am a little out of practice. |

| I am liking the lines of this aeroplane. Punch fingers thru a build.....never happen! |

Clarence thinks it's OK. |

I decided to add the cockpit coaming now so's I wouldn't punch my fingers through covering. |

Mock-up. Fuselage stringers doubled as are ribs on tailfeathers. The cockpit floorboards and instrument panel are in place. |

On the outer wing panels, I doubled the number of ribs, while leaving the spar notches on the kit's ribs in place, I re-cut all to accept a 1/8"x1/4" basswood spar. I also built with no dihedral on either wing to match the real one. |

Wings slightly modified from plans. |

| OK, thanks, I found it at Tower Hobbies. |

| I have used gas line from a mower shop or brown or blk insulation split and pulled from large gauge wire. |

| DD, I have split rubber coaming in 3 sizes. will put on after painting. one size, probably the small one, should fit. These can be purchased at hobby shop. |
