1. After painting the laser-cut cockpit parts, cut
the clear plastic gauge inserts to size. Be sure
to cut away any areas where stringers will
attach or notches where levers will be inserted.
2. Using a small amount of medium CA, attach
the clear gauge insert to the back of the panel
so the protruding lenses fit into the laser cut
holes.
3. Color any necessary parts of the paper gauge
panel and apply glue to the front of the paper.
DO NOT USE CA
for this step (the fumes from
the CA will cloud the gauges). We use a
Scotch glue stick for our prototypes.
4. Apply the paper to the back of the panel so the
gauges line up with the laser-cut holes and
allow to dry.
