And my last post for tonight we tackle the tail wheel.

First up, forming up the box which the tail wheel will attach.

Glued to the wheel well lining. Hmm, looks like the wire is the right length. I used a small paperclip and then superglued it to the lining.

Folded up the lining.

Yep, this angle looks good.

Glued in place, side profile.

Next up is attaching the wing skins to the models. Hope to put up pictures of that sometime tomorrow or a couple days after.

WILL: Quick question for you. If you notice the second to last shot, there is a slight overhang of the wheel well liner. Should I trim it off to place the skins?
