Right now I'm working on the VK Fokker DR.1 kit. I received a partially built kit from a friend on this forum. All it cost was reimbursing him for the postage and even that was my idea not his. The project original owner had passed away (in his 80s) and he already had a Triplane and he knew I really wanted it. It's fun building a stick frame fuselage again. I had bought a Fourmost miter sander sometime back and it is coming in handy. Here is what it looks like.

I am thinking now of going back and ordering the angle sanding blocks.
