Goodness knows I have enough dust on me!


Today, as implied by the title, was mostly about sanding. The wing root, bottom of the fuselage, nose and the canopy/hood. I limited the use of my razor plane to the canopy/hood, as I didn't feel comfortable with the thought of dragging it along the 1/16" cross grain fuse skin. So the 1/2" radius' had to be made with sandpaper and elbow grease. Turns out I could have been a little more generous with the glue in a few spots too...


That done, I carefully cut through the glue spots to release the canopy/hood so I could cut them apart and form the rear which will fit over the LE of the wing, as this will be part of the system that will be holding it down. Which reminds me, I have to get some more finishing resin.
