@romanxdsouza
Excellent! (As usual)
I can see the thread marks, but am curious to know know how you made the tube, especially the taper, and what thickness did you use.

Thank you much sir ,the thread marks dont actually consern the fuse sir it was my idea to tighten the joints. regards the fuse i followed the same steps in the videos below but added a bit of my own grey matter.for the fuselage i used 1mm balsa sheet sanded it to 0.34mm or so i cut 2pieces  of 1mm balsa sheet 12inch x 1inch for motor stick and 9inch x 2cm or so not sure for boom,the 2cm and 1inch cut side will vary depending on how think you want the fuse tube ,these cut pieces i then soaked in normal water then wraped it around a wooded dowel ,put pieces of paper and cello tape to join the center then let it dry for 30mins....for easy explanation to the fuselage i added links to videos below..

These videos are of the rubber powered i used the same concept

These videos are of the rubber powered i used the same concept
(fuse)www.youtube.com/watch?v=UyCL-8Cdh4Y
(wing)www.youtube.com/watch?v=frrI2cKFBCk
(prop)www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZnzZJWhpYys
The parts are basicly build using the same concept as from the videos  above.nothing complicated at all ,just needs practice.only thing difficult to find  here is, i think the rubberband  Head Scratching  and place to fly  Giggle. And offcourse electronics if you are goin to be using.
