I have no idea how to stick this fuse together... I'll go stare at the plans until it comes to me...

Looks similar to the frame construction on my Jug. Seems you have a left and a right pin them to the overhead view and make cross members. Look at the Jug framing photos.

Bill if thee are still in a quandry, look at the framing from my Waco methinks it is very similar.

Fortunately, I realized that I had failed to build the doors on the sides yet. I looked at another forum where the guys are building this kit for electric power, and discovered that building the doors as the plan indicates is a fools errand at best, so I modified them and installed the window "glass." Next I'll do exactly as you recommend, pin it to the plan again and start adding the cross members... I also learned that I need to add a reinforcing longeron to that single dude that sticks out on the front end, as it'll break the first time I touch it without...

From memory, I think this Comet kit had one of their longest wingspans. I built this kit as a kid because it was soo big. Nice framing!
