Normally I'd build up the outside diameter with a ring of glue, but I didn't want a open gap between the tube and ring.
I built up the ring with a wrap of copy paper.
The strip was 1/4" wide x 4 1/8" long.
Use a glue stick to apply the band of paper. Wood glue is too wet and could make a sloppy wrap.
TIP: Note the inside edge of the ring is a bit wide and rolled in over the edge for an easier slide into the body tube.
Those two dots indicate this is the second of three builds.
I won't glue the glider nozzle in until after the inside surfaces are painted black.
