Mike, thanks for the comments. Yes my kit was one of the very first kits, when i saw this bird i had to have one right away! Mine does have the hardwood joiner and i had to enlarge the hole in the fuse by ALOT to get that hardwood joiner the room required to pivot up and down. It doesnt look bad I think its gonna be a great bird. I am all done covering now and not far from flying it but my new postition at my job is leaving me little time to work on it and to tired too.

Embalmer: I have no idea why the manual is on a cd. I just printed it out it was about 18 pages long I suppose its cheaper for them to produce a CD, when ive went to Kinko's to do color copies they charge like 1.50 per sheet thats alot of money just for a manual! I used pro bond I think thats the same as gorrilla glue and it takes much longer than 4 hours to dry but i think its perfect for the foam.

I would have done a build thread but it doesnt seem anyone is interested when ive done build threads before, maybe im just a bad reviewer! Anyways i like the design of this bird I will likely try some of their other birds soon
