covering all the edges first on a profile is the best way to go but it is tedious work especially when working on one that is smaller and only 1/4" thick.

Agree it is taking more time than I thought it would. But got a little done done today one bottom section. Now I really have to wait for the servo because it will be installed on the other side on the bottom some place. And having the tail on does not help, it added a little more cutting and planing.

One side covered it took the day not easy but it is done. There are a couple of seams but that is how it needed to be done had to use what I had.

Note making much progress just doing small touch up with some paint. Well just waiting for the mini servo to show up so that it can be mounted. Then I can finish of the covering and start assembling everything.

Finished up the elevator. Put a couple extra gussets in where I thought I should.

You will have to start cutting ribs soon. Not one of my favourite tasks.

I hear ya! Not mine either! Thought about investing in a Cricut, but I'll probably do it the old fashioned way!

Looked up CRICUT looks very interesting have you ever played with one and tried to cut balsa wood in it.

I have not, but I'm watching another thread where some one is using one to replicate ribs. Programming isn't my fortay though!
