And that also made drawing the parts a bit of a bear. The tail has a slight curve to it from top to bottom, and then there is a concave shape just above the tailcone. |

Early in the construction I was getting disappointed at how sloppy the stringers were lining up. Then I realized I was mis-aligning some of them. Overall I'm pretty happy with the look, but will be making a few changes for better fit and cleaner building. |
