making progress since I have cut out the gear doors I decided they needed glassing,so with some WB poly I glassed on some light weight cloth this was a small challenge because I didn't seal the balsa the moisture in the poly warped the pieces a bit after a couple of coats on the outside I painted a coat on the inner area and the extreme curve flattened out and they returned to there original curve its something to watch out for when using WB material and balsa its very sensitive to moisture, now that it is sealed and lightly sanded though, additional coats don't seem to affect the wood at all and I am building up the thickness so they can be primed I do have some plans for the mounting area which I will post on late
trying to edit posts right now is wack sort of bumming me out on how un user friendly it is right now, so I will just post what I have
