Default RE: 3 Giant Warbird Builds 1-P-40 2-Corsairs

I finished all of the hold down blocks for the fuse and center section and am waiting on epoxy from Tower so I can glue them in and fill in over them with hard balsa. Then once the liners are glued in above them I can flip the fuse over and pour in epoxy to fill the gaps on the one side of each block. I am also drilling small holes in about 1/4" deep on all sides for the epoxy to flow into for a more secure bond. This is the way Ziroli shows to do it except they don't mention the bonding holes.
