We create fabric doilies for added protection at the points where the flying wires will attach to the horizontal stabilizers. This may be overkill since we already have finishing tape at those points, but we added them anyway. We pre-shrunk a section of fabric, then traced circles out with a compass, and cut them out with pinking shears. The doilies were about 3.5" in diameter.

We also glued one of the longer horizontal perimeter tapes (at the leading edge) to the horizontal stabilizers. Ran out of time so will glue on second long tape (hinge side) another day. Hours: 2.5
