Pete has a bigger work area so most of the pictures will be from his end of the project (right, Pete? )

The hardest part was deciding how to build a 4.5 foot fuselage in 3.5 feet of work space (pssst...the solution is to clean up a bit).

There is also a shot of splicing the forward piece of wood onto the main fuselage plank. The 3" wide splice onto the 4" wide fuselage plank is a perfect fit for the canopy shelf.
