I am still carving strut fairings to shape. And at the same time I am starting the engine cowling. I had to figure out how it is going to mount first.


I thought it might possibly be useful when I first stated framing up the fuse if I left a solid lip in front of the firewall .. it is. Screwing through the lip into a piece of ply mounted to the inside of the lip will serve as an excellent mount for my cowl. I will do the same on the other side allowing for the engine cylinder. Not sure on that last bit yet.


So I am working two different areas because I run out of tolerance for carving the struts and I can bounce back to the struts while waiting for glue to dry as I build up cowl blocks to carve.
