I use connecting strips made from the tabs that S&P uses to connect fuselage sections. You can see a small strip I used to attach the rudder. However it needed a small amount of trim, but it got there. Attaching the wings went well as well as the stabilizers and their support struts.

It is coming along nicely. I am intrigued by the tail wheel. How did you get that shape?

Ah yes, they are extremely similar! The main difference I guess is the non-retractable gear.

The build looks very tidy and your tab method for the tail section is a great idea.

Finished. This was supposed to be a "quick" build to get me warmed up for building aircraft. I planned on a weekend but 2 weeks later... Ray i actually made a mistake with the tail wheel, arrows show it was supposed to be squeezed together above the wheel with only one layer shaft into the fuselage.
As for rehab, this definitely helps, left handed dexterity still needs along way to go. Holding a part in the left so it can be painted or formed with the right is still a work in progress. what I'm trying to say is this hobby gives us all something; relaxation, a chance to unwind, a chance to expand our creativity,
chance to exercise our senses of touch and sight and memory. Thanks for the encouragement guys it goes a very long way

Well done. And needless to say, your pictures will be helpful to anyone following who is building this kit.
