I hand cut some lettering for the wing.

Also got the cowl all prepped so tonight I will be laying in some fiberglass cloth as a lip to support where I split the cowl. Big thanks to @Terryscustom for the thread he did on splitting cowl and answering my numerous emails and texts the other day about the subject.

Might be kinda hard to see but I have laid a piece of fiberglass cloth down along the seam of the cowl to create the lip. I will let it set until tonight before playing with it anymore. So while I wait it's back to covering. Forgot I still had one more stab and elevator to cover so I figured now was the perfect time to do the video I had promised a couple of months ago on the glass method I use for covering. Hope it all makes sense to everyone. Feel free to ask any questions if you have them.
