Leading Edges
 

How does one round off the leading edges of the wings ?

How does the gap between the leading edge & the wings get smoothened?

I am new to kit building ?

This is how I do it.

Leading Edges
 

I sand,saw or plane to the basic shape I want,then saw a pvc pipe in half to fit the size edge I'm making then spray 3M 77 or similar in the pipe,then place sandpaper in the pipe. Can do the same by shaping foam,or some wood trim,then sand to the shape desired.

I use a razor plane to get the basic shape, then a bar sander to shape it more, then use the soft sanding sponges to finish. The PVC trick sounds good too.

That PVC is fantastic :). I sure wish I thought of that when building that wasp wing but there is allways a next time and a next time and so on and so on and so on lol.



Have a fantastic day :)
