AMR GiantStick - Fuse assembly and formers

I've done the doubling on the fuse bottom and sides, and have laminated all the parts for the fuse that need to be laminated.

Today we attached the fuse formers, and undercarriage mounting assembly. The later fits together and self-aligns for the most part. Very strong assembly.

Everything slots into each other, it's really more like doing a giant 3d jigsaw puzzle than a traditional kit.


Once the formers are glued some 3/8" stock is glued to the base as you can see in the photo, it's just like all those FunFly 40's we build when I was a teenager.
