more paper turned into aluminum

Any thing wrong with cutting this here ?
I drew the black line first , I like the straight cut the red line is showing .
Sealing it... Small piece of aluminum to overlap and a little bit of high temp silicone to make a vulcanized sandwich.

Excellent work!
The opinions and statements of this poster are largely based on facts and portray a possible version of the actual events.
Thanks Frank , I'm waiting to hear some progress on....hmmm does your plane have a name ?
My first planes name is Miss Lucky Stars....
Cause every time I fly her I'm thanking my lucky stars
my second plane took years to come up with the right name ...Mystical Madness
"Miss Tickle Madness"
It seems to fit .
I think I heard you call her something before ...but can't remember ...
Waiting for updates

More Baffling Pictures.

I have Dzus fasteners on a lot of this lower Plenum.
I plan to hold the top cover in place with them too.
.
So far...the lower pieces weigh 2 lbs 4 ounces
It's strong and comes apart easy.
I made a drill template for the Dzus lay-out...Banding material works good.

hmmm, I stuffed the Buttercup in the pole barn while I work on my Kolb FSII.
Then an opportunity to vac-u-form my wing tips / strobe cover came up .
I looked through my old experiment , found a piece that I can use ...after a little bit of repairs
Here's some pics ...They might have been formed last night , I'll post those pictures later.
