3.42" long would be a scale 48" in 1/14 scale
I use a band saw set with a guard to guide a nice straight cut. Use auto bondo or tamiya white filler. Lots of sanding,dust and patience !

 , it's an actual 3.4285 inches. I suggest cutting it to a 3.4375 or 3 7/16 inches.It makes it easier to measure for cutting and no one will notice the difference. - RCT
