Polikarmov I-16 Project
Hello everybody.
I do a lot of depron building and for quite a while I have been eyeing the Polikarpov i 16 (Rata).
Finally I decided I will go ahead and start the process. Anyone is welcome to join and document their build as a build-off. The link to the plane is this:
I took the file from a Polish guy who puts them online and enlarged it to get a 1.05m wingspan. These are the PDF's with for paper:

The first step will be to cut the firewall (4mm plywood) and the formers of the fuselage (2mm Balsa).
I took a cheap compass plased the sharp tip at the center and the lead on the permitrical line of former A (PDF 1) and marked the circle on the plywood. Next I will cut with a hand copping saw. Not today though.
Here are the pictures:
