Brief Description: Truing up the fuselage with wooden supports
Wooden spacers are used to keep the sides of the fueslage at a fixed distance. V-shaped supports are used to adjust the shape of the forward fuselage to a rectangular solid. In image 2 you can see the plumb bobs are spaced along a centerline. By applying force to the longeron, and checking with a square, the two fuselage sides are made parallel and symmetrical with the center line. Once the plumb bobs are over the centerline several screws are used to lock the V-supports in place.
