The only change from the plans was the change of two ply parts from 3/32" PLY to 1/8" PLY.  The 3" wide 3/32" balsa doublers(45 degree sheeting strips) are not included, since it is very easy to glue on and sand to fuse edge. Fuse is constructed in 3 parts to fit on 36" wood, which lowers shipping costs.
