The new template is ready and I printed the pages for one wing side to check the fitting.
I cut the first wing and add a new back side to it. Then I laminated it with some pieces of cardboard I also left some space for the optic fibres.

Next I cut the internal formers also glued on cardboard.

Next I will glue the formers and I hope the wing is straight.

Thank you both, it does indeed look better it even feels better when I started to cut the first parts. I hope to finish the first wing today. Then I start with the design for the second part of the wing.

Make a little block you can run up the rear inside edge of the wings to straighten them out. :)

Last few days I have worked on the wung laser canons. First I made my own glue tabs after the furst assembly I found the template with the original glue tabs. :headbange:.
The next three parts I used these tabs.

Next the assembly of the guns. I used a paperclip to keep the guns straight.

Next step attaching the parts on the wing. Keep in mind that you can rotate the guns after glueung.

We are almost done I have some small parts left to assemble and afcourse I have to connect all the wires and find a nice place for the battery and switch.
