I don't have a list, but I will tell you that the wood that came with the kit made these models much heavier than was needed. The ribs etc. are way too thick, and if you look at the templates, I listed the original dimension of the wood. You can reduce that by at least one sixteenth and still be okay. Way too much hardwood in the kit, and the wing tip blocks can be eliminated by laminating spruce tip bows. I'd also recommend doing some of the modifications that we have done, such as the redesigned wing plan and the much stronger wing joiners.
