Default RE: Sig Smith Miniplane build

Anywho, back to work.

I took a break from woodworking, and assembled the cowl. I was going to fiberglass the inside, but it built sturdy enough without it, so I'll save the weight. Once again, CA was the only adhesive used.

I coarse-sanded the seams with 100 grit paper, progressing to 320 dry, then 400 wet finishing with 600 wet. Wow, its smooooooth! Wheel pants and headrest not shown, but same method used.
