It doesm't matter what plane you build, they all turn out to be beautiful works of art, as this one will soon be. |

I'll use the kit decals but I don't know what color yet. |

It's important to sand away the filler as soon as it dries cause after that it just gets harder and harder to sand. This required 45 minutes. |

One coat of filler applied horizontally with fingers |

After filling in the first section of the wing I added three additional stringers to the top and bottom. |

I got tired of breaking F1 so I glued FO to it which makes it much stronger and also provides a base for the cowl to be glued to. |

Part FO is to be glued inside the cowling and the 3/32" holes in it and F1 are to attach the cowl for a flying model. The holes in F1 may look great but they substantially weaken the integrity of the part. I broke F1 more than once in building the fuselage! |

If I heard the news correctly, DO Not Send your felines to New Zealand as government there is making an attempt to eliminate cats. Seems the cats there are in too great a number and are depleting the native bird population. |

We had a Maine Coon, named Chappy, about 16-18# that had passed about 5 years ago. Very gentle, but also let you know who the boss was! |

TJH, You can send my cat, Schrodinger. He is 16 pounds of "You'll do it my way!" Auditors, he could eat for breakfast. |
