Nose Ring Installation

The first step in installation is to prepare the nose of the plane for gluing in two of the 1/8" ply spacers. Remove any ugly bumps on the back side of the nose and bevel the spacers as needed to get a good glue joint with both the front of the fuselage and the sides. Scuff and clean the glass per normal and then use slow epoxy and milled glass as needed to get a good glue joint for the two spacers. Clamp and let cure. See photo 2.
