Losing building time as I looked around for a seamstress. I think I'll just piece the fuse one piece at a time.

When you first put it on you think this will never work, there's a lot of shrink in the fabric. I glued down the seam first making sure it is straight, then the rest of the edges, shrink from the seam out. There may be some areas where it makes sense to take the slack out before shrinking.

A long vacation is a great excuse but laziness is not. I keep putting off this build. A slow weekend means I have time to get back on the Cub. Started with the fuse bottom piece today. I wonder if i can get the fuse wrapped this weekend.

If you are like me I just have a hard time building during the flying season. Just not able to sit down in the basement and building . Really enjoy doing maintenance and making the plane fly better but no building.
