[QUOTE=Abrams;11691218]I have done some repairs on ARFs, but have never built a kit from scratch. What is the best way to get started? Any books, magazine, anything you can recommend. Unfortunately I don't know anyone that scratch builds.[/QUOT


What plane are you wanting to build??....Scratch building is VERY rewarding...or can be a nightmare!!!.. So I'm wondering what your looking to build...here is my spacewalker, blown up sig plan...and now my Rarebear being built right now...working on fuse...Nick Ziroli... First thing is, is to NEVER let people crap on ya....I hope you build!! its a nice way to burn up spare time...Build something simple to start...order plans from sig, or some place like that...and use your head when building..you dont HAVE to use what the plan says!! just work at building light...I build on the heavy side, and guys bash me all the time...but i don't care,,,my planes fly awesome!!!...if you EVER need help,,,PM me,,,I'll help you as much as I can...It seems like anymore, people just can't get enough of telling people they can't do it, or shatter the dreams of doing something so nice!!!...here is my "Scratch builds"
