This thing shapes up really fast - so far except for the angle glitch it's been fast and easy. [sm=thumbup.gif]
I totally missed the cutouts for the tri-stock when I went over the plans with a fine-tooth comb, and AGAIN when I cut the formers! Doh! [:@] ( )
It shouldn't be too much of a problem, I mainly had to stop for the night because my "helper" had just gotten home. He loves to play with and "fix" small airplanes - a little too much sometimes.

I'll probably cut another former(s) from scrap in the morning as a mockup, then just progressively change the angle until it works. And then of course, scan it and send it to you (I assume you can scale it as needed ).

Got a color scheme in mind already: cream, deep red, and orange ultracote in cessna-ish styling(sorta). The color combo looks nice on the rolls, we'll see....
