I also added surface tape. As mentioned in my previous posting, at 1,248 stitches and each one 1/16" across,, decided to keep my sanity at this point. At the wingtip, is the inspection window. Will post a close up later. John M Oshust 01-May-16 20:37 I am liking the texture on the solartex. I am not seeing the stitching, but then again my eyes are bad! Skyediamonds1985 01-May-16 20:39 As you can see, Solartex has a nice weave pattern that emulates fabric pretty good. Skyediamonds1985 01-May-16 21:04 John, your eyes are great and I thank you for your discretion. But truth be told, decided to forego the stitching. Just couldn't bring myself to add 1,248 stitches. The tape is to scale at apprx 1/8" in width, this means each of those stitches would be only 1/16" across. This translates to about two weeks working on a near-microscopic level to ensure each one carefully spaced, that they're in the center of the tape to allow for 1/16" in overlap on each side of the stitch, and each perpendicular to the length of the surface tape, matching each row after row.....Oy Vey!!
