Default RE: Hangar 9 Meridian 10cc build thread with Evolution 10cc gasser engine

I plumbed the tank , installed it and plumbed the engine. I'm going to install a fuel dot so as not to disconnect the main line from the carb to fuel up.

I installed the wheel pants and wheel onto the main gear. Just have to cut away the fiberglass so the axle will slide up in. They went together fine.
The wheel pant for the nose could have been prepped better. They installed /glued two small pieces of thin plywood inside the pant where you mount a nylon strap to hold the pant to the nose wheel gear/rod. These small pieces easily split even after drilling the pilot hole. It would have been better to glue one slightly larger and heavier piece inside where you would drill through for the rod to enter and have more meat for the screws to bite into.
