My prototype Giant Scale Corsair short kit is cut. Now to evaluate all the parts and make corrections where needed, and then see if I can reduce the amount of waste on the balsa. A few things left to do before I cut a retail kit, need to remove the part numbers, and come up with my own, as well as move the parts around so they aren't a mirror from the manual(which they actually are). I think $250 a kit should be reasonable. There is a lot of wood here. I wonder what size Saito will fly it.
I wonder how to calculate the answer to that ?
Really cool work there Acdii. That tool must be fantastic. Can you imagine doing that work with a jigsaw as in the past.
What about a quarter scale Great Lakes Special next.🤔😁
