Fairing example
Straight edge placed, and bent to shape. you can see the gaps that need to be filled, the front not so bad, will do with Fairing blend, the rear is worse, and will need laminations of 6mm ply to build up the shape. It looks ok now, but when pained, it'll look like the dogs dinner...
Lesson is: Prepare, Prepare, Prepare. I could have escaped this, IF my formers inside were fair to start off with!
