A shot to show you how "razor thin" I am able to cut the feathered edge with the Wonder Cutter. You can also see the spar being glued.

I shot of the spars in place. I use 3M painters tape as my clamps.

Fuse #3 being glued and held with my favorite clamp. I peeled the areas on the canard where the fuse is glued to it.

A shot from beneath. I used the top and bottom fuse strips to hold my spacing while the glue sets up. I removed them for this shot after they sat for an hour.

A shot rear to front down the fuse. Again, I've removed the top and bottom strips for this shot, but the "clamps" are holding the proper geometry.

Perhaps the hardest step (IMHO) is gluing the wing edge. I know someone has a better way, I'd be interested :) My wife loves it when I make a wing ;)

I find it very difficult to get the wing tips to meet flush. I have started putting stuff under the wing to push it up at the same time. The wax paper is keeping Probond off my books.

Glue has set and I've trimmed the excess away. Light and strong.
