Default Strenghtening firewall & undercarriage plate

Firstly I strapped a flashlighht to the inside of the fus, pointing forwards. Using a long thin brush, dipped in resin, I carefully picked up pre cut fiberglass cloth squares (1" to 1.5") and placed them all around the edge of F1.
I glued additional triangular stock on the U/C plate, where possible. Did the same on the former, infront of the wing. Them using a thin brush, with a 90° bend in it, together with a dentist type mirror I placed more fiberglass squares around the edge of the U/C plate. Its hard to do, because the fus is so thin...small hands would be a wonderful help.
