Giant Stearman / Moki250 Build

[tbrum]

With the fuse construction done, I just started into mounting the upper center wing section.

Pretty straight forward. Nicely explained. Easy to follow.

A front and a back temporary cradle. Puts the upper center section at 0deg incidence to the fuse.

Cabane struts cut to length, drilled and bolts installed.

Just takes some time... lots of compound angles at the end of each strut

And “X” flying wires done. One end is Silver Soldered (40% Ag, Map Gas) and the other end is threaded.

Dirt easy. This is a very fun part of the build!!

You mentioned Hysol glue, what kind of hysol are you using? Nice looking build!

Hysol 9462 is like a creamy white. Takes about 12hr to cure but insane stuff

That’s because it’s been strengthened and reengineered by the meistro himself 😜...lol

Looks great and amazing progress👍
