Hello net.
You will have to have your plans out for this one.

I have a question about the Longeron Doubler at the fire wall.  The plans show 
the first Longeron planned to match the 1/4" shelf and filler block. Also shows 
the Doubler beveled to match the angle of the first Longeron.  

1. Is the first longeron beveled the entire length?
2. Then is the Doubler beveled to match the angel of the side of the Longeron?
2. Is this the way you did it?
3. Can I just glue the Doubler to the longeron and only bevel the portion of 
them both that will be involved with the shelf area?

The book shows what looks like a KR1 with almost straight sides and states just 
to glue on the doubler.  The Plans drawing B shows the bevel situation.  Note I 
have widened my fuselage to be 44" and have a stock firewall. Talk about a 
Banana boat.
