Default RE: Re-attaching a firewall...Any hints?

Thanks for the responses!
I epoxied the firewall back in place yesterday evening and so far everything looks good. I happen to have some 1/8 dowel stock, so I'll be using that to put two dowels on each side.
Aaron, I cant add any triangle stock to the top and bottom because only the fuselage sides come out to where the firewall attaches, so I figure I will wrap a "band" of fiberglass around the fuse sides and across the top and bottom of the firewall.
From what I've been reading on the reviews of this plane, it builds a little tail heavy so I wont have to worry about that!
I appreciate the ideas
Jason

BTW, Tram, I like the picture...I don't think thats what they mean by "tube feeding" though
