Yesterday i cracked on with the front wing stays. I formed them around the front tyres, leaving 2" clearance between the tyre and stay. I then located the fibreglass front arches in place and drilled through into the steel stays. I Tapped M5 threads into the steel stays and then fixed the arches in place with stainless steel bolts.

I then stripped it all poff again, as the wingstays now have to be sandblasted and painted, hopefully today.

I have also made the hole in the nosecone for the cone air filter to poke through, it looks quite good actually.

As always, I've taken a few pics as I went along, and will post them soon.
