Yesterday I spent almost two hours cutting and glueing brass rod, finally to realize that I didn't have the proper tools for cutting it, and having things be just the tiniest bit over-or-undersized, and impossible to fix without a whole lot of work. I found that I had some plastic stock almost the same size (1/32" square) and decided to give up for the day. Early this morning I started over, and in less than an hour I had the fuselage side frames done. It shouldn't take much longer to do the cross-frames, but I'm also busy with other projects.
