RE: Silk Covering Techniques
Awesome thread! Thanks for starting it up. I was just thinking about covering my VK Cherokee Babe in silkspan and dope. I'll try to keep up and post pics when I get to the covering stage!
Personally, I've only had experience with covering the old Guillow's kits in tissue and dope. I used to 'help' my dad build control line balsa models in the early 70's, but somehow the covering was always done after I went to bed and magically... before I got up the next morning.
Cheers!
