Been using this technique over the years except I usually place them in from the opposite direction than you have. Got the tip from Mark Tennant, Guillows Techie. Try making up a couple of sets using tongue depressors...work better on the larger formers....Luck JGJ

If I could do it on my Dauntless, you can do it on your T-Bolt. http://www.virtualaerodrome.com/image_detail.html?p_aircraft_id=117&p_image_id=3557&offset=

This technique for squaring up the right side formers worked pretty well.

Trying to build as many of the "Operating Features" that I can muster up the patience for. Not sure if my pea brain will be able to handle the retractable landing gear, though.

LIke Steve, I stuck with the stock 1/16" stringers. You can also see that I experimented with some different glues. I used Titebond III wood glue for the keels. I'm sure it's strong, but it was pretty messy. Switched to Testor's wood glue, especially for the planks, per DD's advice.

The word "tedious" just doesn't seem to do it justice...

Wings are framed up, too. All according to plan so far, but I'm sure I'll add a few more stringers and maybe do a little planking. Will carve solid wing tips, too.

Stringers doubled up and starting to plank.

Currently on the workbench. On pace to finish by the year 2012!
