Default RE: WILD BEAT SCRATCH BUILD

It's on to the fuselage and the wing can sit for a while. First I made a pair of sides. To so this I made some copies of the side view of the plan and cut out the profile and traced the pattern onto some 1/8" balsa. Then marked all the reference markes for the formers, braces, etc. onto them and cut them out. I did the same for a botttom piece and then glued them together using some 1/2" triangle stock along the bottom joints.
