Default RE: Balsa USA Enforcer Build...

Yes - I too have the magnets from Harbor Freight. I believe that they carry three different sizes and I picked up all three. I also made my own set of fixtures from www.airfieldmodels.com. That is what inspired me to use magnets. Thanks for the tips on the fuse and firewall. As I said, I am going to take this build slowly and hopefully steady (try to dedicate 30 minutes a day to it). I plan on using Elmer's carpenter glue whenever possible. I know that the pictures look a little strange in their exposure. I guess I will use the good camera to take pictures from now on. On the firewall, I placed it on the table (with a thick metal plate on top of it) that has a 100lb pulling strength magnet underneath it and placed a metal plug cylinder on top of it (15lbs wt) and let it sit over night. Dan, did you make both Enforcers per the instructions or did you do any modifications /extras?

Happy flying and soft landings!
