New Way A-20 Demon Build Part 7, Tube Seam Filling

The tube spirals are a bit deeper than a regular tube.
CWF was applied using an old knife blade.
The knife tip was dipped in the filler. The drop of filler was dragged down the seam about an inch at a time.

The square launch lugs seams were also filled.



After sanding down the dried filler I had to go back a hit a few spots again.

The lugs were glued on, one at the top and the other at the bottom.

The flat side of my sanding block was used to make sure they were even with the tube sides.

The nose cone shape took some getting used to.
I sanded through the filler and into the balsa at the corners.










To re-fill the sanded areas the filler was rubbed on with a fingertip.
