Next using binding wire, seize the Fuselage Stringers in place in front of each Station diagonally
twisting the wire to tighten in place on the Station corners. Start at the rear and move forward as seen
in the picture below. Once all the Fuselage Stringers are seized and adjusted check the Rudder Pivot
to be on center and vertically plumb then glue all the joints and allow the glue to set completely. See
picture below.
Once the glue has set completely on all the stringer joints slowly remove the 1/8" brass tube Stabilizer
from the Stations and then the two (2) sides of the Building Fixture down from the wood Stations.
See the picture on the next page. Next cut all the Station rubber bands and carefully remove the
Stations by turning them diagonally and down leaving only the Fuselage with the binding wires still in
place for now. Check all joints to make sure they are tight and still glued securely. If in doubt glue the
joints again.
