Here the fuse halves are joined with masking tape and the inch and a half seam tape is applied to the bottom.

Landing gear being molded into the bottom and will be sanded smooth after resin sets. The long brush on top will be used to apply the seam tape to the inside top portion of the fuse.

Rear wheel temporary fit…

I'm in the process of making a mold for a easystar fuse. I used the replacement foam fuse from the local hobby shop and mounted it to a board, filled the pushrod channels and servo holes on the outside. Fuse plug is painted and waxed.

I must decide where to install hatches (if any). I still have the removable canopy as a seperate part, and will mold the wing insert seperately.
