Enclosed is a picture of a Gee Bee Z I'm building.
Just the looks of this airplane makes it one of my favorites.

I always admired the resources of scale model builders and was wondering what type of ideas are here for fabricating a set of wing and tail braces for this airplane.
The designer recommends small eye hooks and elastic cord.
I like that idea for simplicity but am not having any luck finding suitably sized hardware.
Fuctionality is not necessary. Very light weight is. This is a 40 sized airplane.
All ideas would be appreciated.

I want to thank WalterD for his excellent idea!
I found that the rustoleum primer did the trick. The fillets are looking good!

Thanks,
Pat
