6. Trim 1/8" from the top of the remaining die-cut 1/8"
plywood former F1, and trim the tab from both sides as
indicated by the shaded area. Glue F1 into position as shown.
Refer to this photo for the following two steps.
❏
7. Make two 3/8"-thick forward strut reinforcements by
gluing together two die-cut 1/8" plywood forward strut
reinforcements (FR) and one die-cut 1/8" plywood forward
strut reinforcement plate (FSP) (the parts are symmetrical,
so there isn't a right and a left).
❏
8. Make two 3/8"-thick aft strut reinforcements by gluing
together two die-cut 1/8" plywood aft strut reinforcements
(RR) and one die-cut 1/8" plywood aft strut reinforcement
plate (RSP). Be certain you make a right and a left.
❏
9. Remove the fuse from the building board. Referring to
the photo and the fuse plan for the correct orientation, use
30-minute epoxy to glue all four strut reinforcements into
position. The dashed lines on the reinforcement plates
indicate the position of the reinforcements behind them.
Immediately proceed to the following step.
❏
10. IMPORTANT: Use leftover balsa sticks to remove epoxy
that has been squeezed into the cavity created by the
reinforcements and the fuse sides.
