Window strip went quickly. A little practice helps.

I switched to the wings this evening. I found this rib stitch idea somewhere I decided to try it. It is string glued to paper.

Not too bad.......

The panels are glued to the frame with Weldbond/equivelent. I don’t remember gluing the cloth to the liteply panels.

Working on the fake wing stitching, 1/16 or 1/8" soft rope glued to paper then strip cut with a circle cutter.

Test on the underside of the wing. I can't the tape to mold/ form over the rope pieces. I will search for smaller rope.
