    Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

    A look at how I attached some of the wood dowel to metal tubing. I put a screw deep into the wood but left an inch or less sticking out to protrude into the steel tubing and buried it in Hysol. Cutting the cross member away shows the screw.

    I picked up a Sherline mill for very cheap, will probably sell it on eBay soon. It has an M1 taper.
