Default RE: better way to screw on cowl!!!!!!

ORIGINAL: PROP-WASH

Hi Guys
I was wondering if any body could help me ? I have a H9 corsair
that I have completed is there some thing or some way that i can
attach the cowl without those little screws that strip the heads after
removing once or twice. just something to make it easy to put on or off.
The Kyosho AT-6 had a cowl mounting method that did not show at all, and no screws actually went through the fiberglass.

A thin plywood ring gets epoxied inside the cowl, near the rear. Blind nuts are installed in the firewall for socket head cap screws. I attempted a drawing, please don’t laugh too hard.
