Scratch building -sheeting foam
I'm very interested in scratch building, so I've decide that sheeting foam would be the easiest way to 1st sculpt, then stregthen with spars and then sheet.
The planes I build will be .40 size, but I'm not sure:
A- What foam I should use?
B- What glue I shuld use to bond the foam?
C- What glue should I use to seet the wings/ surfaces ?
Any suggestions out there ?

RE: Scratch building -sheeting foam
A- Use building foam ( Pink is better when cutting w/ hot wire not as much fumes.
B- White wood glue or epoxy
C- Epoxy is better MOP.
I'm almost finish mine. I use news paper to sheet the wings using white wood glue.
