Start at the joint between the lower and upper keel pieces. Glue
the stab platform to former 8 and the lower keel piece.
Glue formers 3A behind the landing gear legs.
Build the wing panels over the plan. Use W5 to set the angle of
rib A. The 1/8" diameter wing tubes are secured to the main
spar with strips of 1/16"x1/32" balsa.
Glue the nose block key to the back of the nose block. It fits inside
the square hole. Once the glue is dry, shape the nose block using
the plan top and side views as a guide.
Place a strip of 3/32" square balsa at the leading edge of the stab
platform. Glue a 1/16" square stringer on each side of the fuselage
as shown. Use the piece of 3/32" balsa as a guide. Once the
stringers are in place remove the piece of 3/32" balsa.

Glue the nose block laminations together. The lamination with the
square square hole is the back. The lamination with the circle
marked on a face is the front. Use a length of 1/8" dowel to align
the laminations. Remove the dowel before the glue sets. Also glue
the nose block key pieces together (NB1 and NB2).
