Still confused about the door opening. The upper tube is right at the split between the door and window?

I will cut it out later. It's used in this build (PT21 flyer's) to assist in framing the upper steel assemblage.

Looking at the 2 sides together and thinking about the next steps.

A little bit of fuse shape starting to appear.

Looking around on other builds I decided I did not like butt joining the cross members against the gussets. Why not lock the gussets over the crossmembers?

A couple more cross members before I call it a night.

Looks somewhat like a Cub fuselage. All dry fitted, no gluing until i get the firewall fitted.

Looking good. What is your glue of choice for the gussets?

Probably Titebond II or III, I'm not sure I like the Gorilla wood glue I'm using. And I almost never use CA glue.
