D 8. Strengthen the inside surface of the fuse sides in
the area of the LG wires by applying thick CA and spreading
it smooth with waxed paper.
D 9. Glue the die-cut 1/8" ply Rt. LG doubler to the Rt.
fuse side. The bottom edge of the doubler is even with the
bottom of the fuse side, and there must be a 1/8" gap in front
of F-3.
D 10. Glue the die-cut 1/8" ply Lt. LG doubler to the Lt.
fuse side. The bottom edge of the doubler is even with the
bottom of the fuse side, and there must be a 1/4" gap in front
of F-3.
D 11. Glue the 1 /8" x 1 /8" x 7/8 " hardwood filler to the
Lt. fuse side, along the front edge of F-3. NOTE: The
bottom end of this filler must be 1/16" above the bottom edge
of the fuse side, and there must be a 1/8" gap between the
filler and the LG doubler for the LG wire.
D 12. Using a razor saw, cut one of the 1/2" x 24" balsa
triangles into two 6-1/8" lengths and two 5-7/8" lengths.
D 13. Glue the 5-7/8" long triangles to the inside of the
fuse sides along the bottom, from the front of F-3 forward to
the front of the fuse sides. Note that the triangle is angled
in relation to the bottom edge of the fuse side (see the fuse
plan side view). NOTE: If you have installed the 1/8" ply
LG doublers, run the triangles from the front of the doublers
forward.
D 14. Using your razor saw, cut slots in the 6-1/8"
lengths of 1/2" triangle, to permit bending. Then glue these
triangles to the fuse sides along the top edge, beginning at the
rear edge of F-3 and extending forward to the front of the
fuse sides.
