Man. This kit is so much fun to build. I have the fuse sides all on. Actually the fuse is almost done minus some small things. Pictures to come. Terry the gear plate holes get covered with the plate you designed correct.

Ya Terry's perfect fit and finish are making me look good. It's really a fun easy build. I just hope he has more planes on the back burner. Only thing I do different than him is I'm using wood glue on almost everything. Med ca just sets way to fast for me. The wood glue gives me time for final fitting And checking.

Just a note, for the medium CA, you put the parts together, clamp them and THEN glue

NO
It was covered in this thread in detail back around page 7-9. For titebond you clamp the parts in place, wick a bead of medium CA that is drawn into the gaps. Let cure for a bit then put another bead with a little dusting of micro balloons to form a fillet. When dry, move on. For doublers I test fit, glue, eyeball in place and use kicker. Follow with a bead and micro balloons. They will all get fine tuned with sandpaper slightly or drill bits because of the angle of the fuse sides anyway.

For the way you are using your hysol you are just building a fillet which does not typically add much strength, it will add support but since it's not between parts, it's not actually bonding anything so I would advise using it sparingly in that application or smooth it into a fillet.
