| John M Oshust | Dumas Kit #1805, Waco ARE | Build | 20-Sep-09 14:11 |  | | Views : 847 | | The dowels have been amputated to give the required width. You can see the Al tubing, a large ferrule, which holds the assembly together. My goal is to fabricate the float mounts as two halfs that slip together and mount onto the fuse. This will make my transport easier. |

| John M Oshust | Dumas Kit #1805, Waco ARE | Build | 20-Sep-09 12:38 |  | | Views : 843 | | When the epoxy on the dowels sets, the dowels can be cut to give the required spacing with the fuse. Tubing ferrules will allow me to adjust the width to the rquired fit. |
