I think the Saito Twin would look to cool to cover up with a cowl.

I put the fuselage sides (aligned at the tail) and doublers, formers, and bottom together with no glue, just a couple of ruber bands to hold everything tight. Then I traced around the openings in the doublers to make sure it was in the correct position when glued. I cut a couple of pieces of balsa scrap the same length as the distance that F3 is used to separate the doublers to hold that dimension when disassembled. After applying glue I located the doubler with the marks I had made and put a few staples in each side to keep the doublers from wandering as Ipiled on the books and magazines for wieght.

I would like to install the landing gear with nylon screws to avoid tearing the bottom out of the fuselage with an inevitable hard landing. What size should I use (10-24 or 1/4-20), and should Ijust drill and tap the landing gear block or use blind nuts or nylock nuts above the landing gear block?

I also bought a Sullivan tail wheel bracket.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
