| Next, laid some 50# bond paper over the parchament. I think that next time I will use standard 20# paper. Can you see where I'm heading? |

| Covered the face of the board with parchament paper to prevent glue sticking to it. |

| I feel like a cobbler. Small brads driven into the edge of the board at every other 3/32" mark. |

| Here's a close up of what I used for simulating the rigging and turnbuckles for the cockpit interior. I tied a small knot at the end of silver-colored thread being used as wiring, so as to keep the small tubing from slipping off. I then glued a tiny brass bread to the end of my (now) turnbuckle. Cut off the excess thread, leave the knot in place and glue the knot onto the framework, making sure that it lines up with the direction of the wiring. |
