Default RE: OMP Yak build

The entire fuse is sheeted with 1/16 balsa sheets. I did as the instructions suggested because I thought that would be the best way as well.. The instructions said to cut 4, 36'' sheets into 24'' and 12'' sheets. Or in other words cut 12'' off of one end. Then you have made eight 24'' sheets and eight 12'' sheets from the four 36'' sheets. These sheets, plus the remaining four 36'' sheets are glued together to from the fuse sheeting for both sides of the fuse. If you'll look close in the sheeting picture youll see that there are three seams. The botton sheet has a seam on the right. That is a 24'' sheet and a 12'' sheet on the right of it. The center sheet is two 36'' sheets together with a seam in the middle. The top is a 12'' sheet on the left and a 24'' sheet on the right. The sheeting for the other side of the fuse is opposite of this because I didnt want to have the same seam on both sides at the same place. Just seems to be reasonable to me for strength.
