The "stick in the Wing" idea worked great!!
Although connecting all 8 struts was a real pain! mostly because of the small size
and partly because it was my first biplane.

Anyway, the plane is together ........with dihedral!




So, that means the Sopwith is done (I think)...only thing I deliberately did not do is the Tail Skid.
I believe FG recommends using a toothpick to make a little tail skid part,
but at this size, its just too small to bother with.

I have already assembled the FG Barn and Silo (from the Farm Buildings kit0)
and created a base for the entire diorama.
Heres a sneak peek at the Sopwith in place on the Diorama base.
I'll save the big reveal till the end!
