No problem, I say to each his own. The fact of cutting out ribs is something I hated when scratch building. With the advent of the laser, I hopefully will never cut another rib.
And Gene, I have built more planes since I got it over a year ago than I ever have in one stretch. In a little over a year, I have built 4 - 1/2 A control line planes, 3 - 1/2 A rc planes, 3 - micro electric, currently building the School Boy and partly built a 25 size pattern ship (Tweedy Bird). Have also sold or bartered 20 or so short kits. The cad work has been the most work, but as TJ said about these forums, I have had a lot of help from members. It has been a blast. TJ, did you put a spar on the botton to attach the sheer web to?
