TIP & TECHNIQUE TIME

Most of you probably have your own method of aligning the spinner with the nose, but here's how I do it. First, there's the basic pieces. Spinnner, nose ring, and engine, mounted in it's final place.

Next, I cut a few scraps of spacer. This time I'm using 3/32, in case I need thrust adjustments. I used to use 1/16 when I was sure of the engine. Then, you super glue the spacers to the ply ring, and then to the spinner backplate. Don't worry, you will cut them off and sand down later.

The final photo shows the assembly mounted onto the engine. Now you just build backwards. But that's for tomorrow.
