I just find the planekits i like alot and dontthink i would want to be without
. then instead of building that kit i make a copy/cut another kit from the original order the extra wood and i always have the original kit. just copy all the fuse formers andwing ribs and any light ply fuse sides extra. and you have a new kit.

That's the way to do it. I make templates of the parts then build the kit. after flying it for a while I may not want another one. Anything you see come out as an ARF like the TF gold warbirds you may want to buy one now while you can. In the past it has been the writing on the wall.
