Default RE: Another Eindecker build

Wow, now it's time for final sanding and finishing/covering. Won't be much to look at while sanding, but I am going to glass the forward part of the fuselage/cockpit area. I think that will make the best base for painting. I mentioned that I picked up some wire for rigging wires on the wings. The E III had a bunch of cables to deal with the wing warping, but I'm only going with 4 on the top and 4 on the bottom. Should look nice that way. There are no provisions on the plans for attaching these, and not wanting to drill into a spar, I decided to add some 1/4 balsa sticks for wire attachment. Next post, I should be glassing the fuse. Oh, I'll have to build a test mount for my engine and I may get some pics of that up.
