3D Yak rebuild

It's been a while since I've posted but the construction field is in full swing keeping me busy. Nonetheless the cowl is finished. My first crack at it and super happy with it! It's going to need a little trimming. I cut the cowl in two for ducting. Then I melted the foam with lacquer thinner. It almost an ARF!

I got the cowl ring made. Went a different route than planned. So I put the cowl back together. It is mounted from the inside of the fuse. I wanted to try and keep the cowl clean looking. It took some time but was able to get a nice gap between cowl and hatch.

Getting closer, just finished paint. I'm hoping to finish radio install and possibly maiden on Sunday.
