With the stringers and forward fuse doublers installed, it's now time to sheet the fuselage sides. The fuse side sheets are
3/32" x 3" x 48".





It is absolutely imperative that the top and bottom edge of each sheet is straight and square. I have previously shown the method that I use to accomplish this...



Even though the sheet is 48" long is was about 3" short. A small piece will be added.





I could have used another set of hands, what with spreading the glue, getting the sheet in place and clamped before the glue set was a daunting task. Having a plan beforehand and doing a "dry run" without glue is key to making sure you don't run into any surprises.
