Default RE: Mosqitobite TriPacer going on the workbench.

Last nite I sheeted the nose . Did it just as shown in the instructions, 1 piece on each side with a triangle in the middle. Used a spritz of water and amonia, let it set a few min. and bent it down. Thats the easist sheetig job I have ever done. Glued down some 3/8 and 1/4 sq sticks to the bottom of the fuselage and let them dry over nite. sanded the contour this AM. The gear goes in just aft of the faired area. Built up a box of 3/8 sq sticks on the firewall per the instructionsand set it aside. Dru fit the firewall/engine box/nosegear assembly as you see it. It gets glued in once the engine is set. The arms protruding from the firewall are to hold the cowl nose block. That gets started after supper.
