The House Of Balsa Dust / Profile in place

05Ready

If you look carefully, you can see a bright red laser line that was used to accurately locate the profile and the paper taped onto the fuselage in their correct positions. The profile is taped onto the fuselage exactly as if it were the original 2-D view in the plan.

The bottom of the profile registers along the bottom of the side window, and registers with the point where the side window bottom meets the windscreen side post.
The paper wrapped and taped onto the fuselage is where we will generate the 3rd dimension that is missing from the 2-D profile. If that didn't make a lot of sense that's ok - this is where the "majik" part begins.
