Title: do i have to start over??????
Post by: steve pagano on October 11, 2006, 12:28:08 PM

I'm in the middle of building a plane and i cut out the fuse sides but i over cut them by about 1/8 on top and bottom. Do i have to cut out new sides and doublers or can i fill them in when i put the wing in place (foam wing 5.1. pattermaster)

If you draw centerlines and carefully shim the cutouts, you can go with what you have.  Be diligent in your measurements to insure correct alignment and incidence.
