Another modeler has weighed in on his build.
"When I glued the fuse halves together, the tail area join was skewed by a fraction of a millimeter. However, with WNW's legendary tolerances, this totally threw off the angle of the stab slot. I had to gouge the slot out on one side and eyeball it into the correct angle.
Another was the radiator pipe that comes from the upper wing and goes all the way to the bottom of the engine sump. I snapped it off when trying to align it into its slot (of course, the fuse was already joined by this point). So I had to ream out two of the fuse bottom access ports, shine a bright light into one, and use the other to tweezer and glue the pipe end back into place. I really could have used a nurse mopping my brow during that "operation".
Third major muff-up was snapping off one of the wing strut connector points (KNEW that was gonna happen). I reattached it with a tiny length of .3mm piano wire. Greatly strengthened it, and it gave me some flexibility to work with while I tried to get the da*@n thing into the slot."
