| former tops attached and stringers being installed. One of the things I hope to gain by posting these pictures is advice/tips. If any of the more experienced modelers see something I"m doing wrong or can suggest ways to do this better/easier, please chime in! I've always found it's easier to learn from the mistakes and experience of others than reinventing the wheel over and over.... |

| here's how I ended up assembling the fuselage. The formers are all square on top and I shimmed each one to match (as best I could) the curve lengthwise. It's still a liittle beyond my abilities right now, and although it came out straight the formers got skewed in plan view (from above). Drats. |
