Here is an alternative way of gluing in the joiner strip of foamboard for fuselage tubes. It involves a bit more setup and different glue but the results are a little more refined and more time is allowed in setting up the gluing arrangement.
An easy method of making light, durable, inexpensive fuselage tubes for scratchbuilt foamie RC planes.
Basic materials are Readi-Board (Dollar Tree) foamboard or other foamcore board with thin, peel-able paper facing, Gorilla or CA glue, and packing tape. costs about US$1 per tube to make. See other videos for ideas for wing construction.
