After temporarily fixing the box section in with bridger (Isopon P40) and letting it fully cure, I carefully unslotted the arms and reinforced the bridger with standard fibreglass matting and resin.

Fixing arm slots into the core
So just like the torso and legs - the arms will slot on and off the torso for ease of transportation. Before I foamed the arms I milled down two sections of smaller steel bar to fit in some different sized box section - shown in the photos below - I suspended the steel bar sections in the arms when foaming and the box section will be glassed into the torso core. Hopefully the photos will explain properly!
