Default RE: 1/3 Vickers F.B.19 MKII

Have to go slow with this and can't make a mistake here. I have determined the strut length's and angles and have assembled the Mick Reeves top strut fittings. I'll be using GTM J bolts to hold the struts onto the frame. I have slotted the BUSA struts to accept the MR fittings. Since the cabana struts will be painted I'll fiberglass them after they are JB Welded together. I am using a length of 7/32 music wire inside the strut. I'll be making a jig to make sure the center section will be where it should be. I have it pretty close in the photo.
