1st build(rebuild)
This started out when my first plane suffered from pilot whit more guts then brain... 
So I begun with the leftovers and started to planing my first scratch build, but with the old plane as a template (sort of).
The idea is to build it with some own ideas and see how it will work out. If nothing else, it could all be used as a bad example!
I´m taking it kind of slow and letting the ideas and pieces come together at it´s own pace.
But I thought I could post some pics of what I´ve done so far, just to share, and to get any input you might have.
I should probably mention that I have laminated balsa with fiberglass and that the leftovers from the old plane (with some mods to it) is used as a template and plug to mold the outer shell.
