Another view of the jig and clamps. My "other hobby" is woodworking and one of the truisms from that avocation is that you can never have enough clamps.

Longerons and formers mounted on the alignment jig. Got Clamps?

THis is the jig that I made to insure the alignment of the longerons. The longerons actually change elevation from the main spar back to the final former by about 7/16", thsu the jig.

It tool me a while to get the features on this site figured out and Jim had to change something for me to get in. That being said, I ve actually been working on this thing for about a month, so there will be lots of pictures intially. Here are all of the formers, of 1/8" ply except for the main wing spar which is 1/4' BAltic Birch ply. Cut them out on my bandsaw and sanded them round on my spindle sander.

Hi All. I'm going to try to build this thing. The plans were in the 1954 Air Trails Model Annual. I got them from the Outerzone site. It will be scaled at 3/4"-1ft. to match the Guillows kits.

Working on the bollom side now. I'm beginning to see an assembly problem getting the wings into the fuselage. Bill Parker, do you thhink your method would work?

After 3-4 inches it's not pretty anymore. Had to take a couple of days off from bulding to clean up.

I traced the wing ribs for the Cutlass and am using the bottom portion to make the flat bottomed wing into a more realistic airfoil.

Wings are finished. The leading edges are shaped with solid wing tips. Engines are next.
