Here's the outside

Having these tubes sticking out is a little spooky, especially with the traffic in the garage. One accidental bend and I'm screwed. So I put the wood blocks back into the main wing spar with some smaller chunks of wood under that stick out about 8 inches. I also put my heavy bucket of clecos under the tubing. So now if some gets close to the tubing they will bump into the wood chunks and the cleco bucket instead. I put a 5 gallon bucket of paint on the other side of the fuselage. These tubes are sticking out between 4 1/2 and 5 Inches, which should be enough to connect to the wing tanks. If I'm wrong about this, someone please email me.
