Brief Description:  Cover Bottom Of Fuselage.

Covered the bottom of the fuselage and completed the initial shrink.

* This part was actually pretty easy. There are a lot of little cuts to make to clear the tubes and other obstructions, but the patience required for this step has to do with the quantity of cuts and tabs to glue down as opposed to the complexity.

* I spent some time trying to determine where the front edge should be terminated. The text says the cross member at station 2, but the diagrams show the covering following the two small diagonals at the outer ends of the station 2 cross member. I decided to follow the diagrams.

* I have seen photos of people doing this on saw horses. I was really glad I built my rotisserie as I was flipping it over and over to reach all the nooks and cranny's without straining.
