Hey Bipeaddict,

Did you build your nose per the plans? I just started looking to fit the 3/8" cheek doublers and 3/4" tri stock into the front cowl, and man, that is a lot of wood to jam in there. It will just barely clear the engine mount as set up for my Super Tigre 45. I am worried that if I ever decide to go bigger, or 4-stroke, it just won't fit.

I am thinking of maybe thinning down the 3/8" doublers to provide more clearance. I should still be able to get the correct rounded shape for the nose.

Do you have a close-up pic of your (your plane's...) nose?

Thanks
