broken cinder block weights.
Gluing bulkhead 6 to the stringers. Be sure it is
not twisted or warped.
Glue the nose doubler to the bottom, 3/8
inch back from the front edge. Be sure that
the nose doubler is installed correctly. If
you are not sure, check it against bulkhead
1.
Putting it together
Slip the framework over the bottom, and
slip the tabs of bulkheads 4 and 5 into the
slots in the bottom.
Place weights on the bottom to keep it flat
against the building board.
If bulkheads 4 and 5 fit tightly to the
bottom, wick thin CA into the joints and hit
with accelerator.
DO NOT glue bulkhead 3 to the bottom!
Glue and double glue bulkhead 6 to the
side stringers. Be sure bulkhead is 90
degrees to the bottom. Side stringers will
overhang bulkhead slightly. We will trim
these later.
