Now for the fun part. After drying, unwrap the bandages. The balsa pieces will relax slightly, but they will retain most of the shape of the form.

I laid plastic wrap over the form and then glued the forward and rearward balsa shells together at the scarf joint with epoxy (with the shells on the form). I also wicked thin CA in the slice cuts made during the wrapping process. I covered the epoxy joint with plastic film and then used ace bandages to hold things in place during cure.

I'm very pleased with the results.
