That cowl looks fine. Exactly what I have in mind...
Alas, I had the build instructions / article but cannot locate them now. If you have them and can share, I'd appreciate em...
The box of wood should arrive any day now. I'm finishin up a couple odds and ends to make room on the board for it.
I have a crude wing jig that I made out of 5/32 music wire. Not sure if it's long enough for half a wing. I was planning on blocking up the TE and build on the board. Any thoughts on this one??

Also, I'm a fan of Sig Koverall and have used it a bunch in the past. I'm interested in using fabric found on Aircraft Spruce & Specialty site as an alternative along with Randolph Nitrate. This project would bode well for this type of finish. Has anyone had experiance with these alternatives?? Or any other??? Inquiring minds want to know
