[rebel-builders] bottom front corner wraps FUS 70

Jason,
I made it out of card stock (thin cardboard) first, then used that for a pattern. It is a tricky area and you have to just hold/clamp/cleco it in place while you make marks for the slots.
I ended up making those wraps from .032 sheet which adds some difficulty too.

Hi all
would anyone have a close up picture of the bottom side of where the
bottom front
corner wrap meets the cage and the fus 2's.Feel a little stupid here
but I just can't get
those slots cut properly.A picture or any advice on this one would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks Jason B

Yes as Jesse says, and as it shown in the pictures I sent you previously
Jason, you make ALL your corner wraps with poster board first. It's ~ the
same thickness so works nice... you hack out an oversized hole and then
place on the fuselage. Then use masking tape to close in the hacked out hole
to form the perfect slot. Transfer to aluminum when happy with fit.
