Default RE: Vertigo II Build Thread

I added the polyurethane filler. Man that was hard to do to an old original fuselage but I've got to get the ripples out and I didn't want it to cave in while laying the mold.

I'll attach a picture of the poly I use. It's from a place called GT products in Grapevine, TX. It pours like thin epoxy and takes about 5 minutes to kick and about 30 minutes to harden. I rotated the fuselage till it hardened and have a max of about 1/4" wall. BTW, I got permission to do whatever to the fuselage as long as we can pull some more.

No more work for a while. I've got a Dirty Birdy to paint for the Arkansas SPA!
