HI All,

Here is a shot of my tail blocks, I am running the DZ - Mike suggested that I cut a 1/4 slot for the fin post. It was easy to do with my dremel router. Also here is the steel ruler jig I am using to cut fuse sides, I tape the ruler down to the table top and tape the 1/8 balsa sides to the ruler in position to do my cuts, It keeps the top edge nice and straight.

Actually I said extend the tail post down all the way to the tail wheel block instead of stopping at the fuse top. You have to cut the whole block 1/4", not just slot it.

Sorry if I wasn't clear on that. Sometimes things don't translate well over the phone I 'spose.
