Downscale Carded A.S.P. Part 5, Body Tube Wrap


The body wrap skin is wide on the left side.
The pencil mark in the picture shows the extended side.

Cut it to just the outside of the ink where the pencil mark is.
This slight extension of the left side is the first side you glue down and ends up as the underlap.

Make a straight pencil line down the 9" long BT-5 tube.

Apply glue stick to the underside of the entire body skin.

Start the wrap down the line and even with the tube ends.

By the time you get to the end of the wrap the glue might be too dry to adhere to the tube.
Apply more glue and close up the end seam.
The top still needed a little more glue applied under the skin with a knife tip.







Sand the ends even with some 400 girt on a sanding block.
