I’m sure there are probably better ways to build them but this is how I did mine.  I have almost 200 flight hours on it now and so far everything has held up very well.  No cracks or failures.  The double gull wing doors are much nicer than the single piper door.  Much easier to get in and also much better to load the back seat.
