Default RE: 1/4 scale F9F Panther build

Another Saturday night. My fuse. got kicked off the big table so John could put his up there and start lining up his wings. He put it up on blocks to hold it level. He also sanded 4 degrees into the root of the foam core so it will butt against the fuse. Don't be intimidated by the laser . It was used to extend a line onto the foam core from the plug in on the fuse. The line is where John will cut the wing open to install the aluminum bar. He was kidding when he asked for a laser but I had one laying around so I whipped it out and he used it. The laser is also good for drawing panel lines on curved surfaces. It's a cheap one I got at Menards............ John Roth came over and worked on his stab. Vladimir and Hal came over to show off the canopy plug. It really looks good. Forgive me but I don't remember to get the camera out to take pics. of everything.
