I'm a little confused about the "glass and graphite around and under the spinner area" I guess it's the "and under" portion that's the problem. Could you describe it a little more, did you go completely around the half circle of the top cowling ?? I've mirrored George's work over the years, the crack doesn't appear to be growing but it is annoying.

Worked. I have no cracking.
