Had trouble with the rear fuselage cone.The cone is a Mercator projection that has 9 petals that meet at a point.The only way I could think of was to use 3 different sizes of washers to join them together.Nit perfect but will have to do!

You're off to a good start. I like the idea of the popsicle sticks to support the wing.

Slow progress due to all of the formers that have to be cut out of 1/16" basswood!
