Hi Guys
I've been working on the rear of the fuselage. I have painted it a light pale gray as discribed in all info I've found on the triplanes tube color. Which in the early production runs the frames were supposedly unpainted just bare metal varnished! Then later went to the light pale gray. Which in some light looks white. I used an enamel paint brushed on over enamel primer. Next I started to brace wire the fuselage. This is a slow process which takes much time and effort. I will show in later posts how I go about my methods of doing this. But for now here are some pic's.

Tom do you jig/brace the fuse as you do the cross brace wires so it doesnt pull it out of alignment?

I believe the answer to that question is yes.
