It sure is nice being able to take the plane apart to work on specific areas. It's especially nice when working on the fuselage.
I'm still awaitung the control horns, so I cannot close it up, but I can work on the nose area. I installed the top nose blocks, and the cowl. After shaping, they look pretty good, and the plane is starting to look like the design on the plans.
As it sits assembled with the engine, tank, and muffler, the weight is 49 oz's, but no hollowing has been done on the nose blocks, and cowl. I still feel good shooting for the mid 60's with this plane.
