Let’s build the radio box while the glue cures on the
hull.
Radio Box
Remove all of the radio box parts: Two long sides,
two short sides, the top and bottom, as well as the
1/16 ply top.
Lay a piece of plastic wrap or waxed paper on your
bench.
We use Titebond III and glue all of the 1/8 ply parts
at once.
We tape it together to cure for a couple of hours.
Using CA or Titebond III, glue the two long sides
and two short sides to the bottom.
The small sides have a “T” and “R” on them. These
face inside.
The “R” on the short side should be on the same
side as the “R” on the radio box bottom.
Glue the bottom in place.
Glue the radio box top on.
This is the 1/8 inch Birch top.
Wrap tape tightly around the box so that all joints
are tight.
Take a break for a while, so that the radio box glue
joints can cure.
Lightly sand the top of the box.
