Next using binding wire, seize the
Fuselage
Stringers
in place in front of each
Station
diagonally
twisting the wire to tighten in place on the
Station
corners. Start at the rear and move forward as seen
in the picture below. Once all the
Fuselage
Stringers
are seized and adjusted check the
Rudder Pivot
to be on center and vertically plumb then glue all the joints and allow the glue to set completely. See
picture below.
Once the glue has set completely on all the stringer joints slowly remove the
1/8” brass tube
Stabilizer
from the
Stations
and then the two (2) sides of the
Building Fixture
down from the wood
Stations
.
See the picture on the next page. Next cut all the
Station
rubber bands and carefully remove the
Stations
by turning them diagonally and down leaving only the
Fuselage
with the binding wires still in
place for now. Check all joints to make sure they are tight and still glued securely. If in doubt glue the
joints again.
