Default RE: Ann is building the burito

my tough was that in the case of a structure like the burito (all sticks) the use of a glue with good gap filling properties was a good idea for the case you slightly miss the triming of a stick. the alliphatic resin will fill the joins better than CA and result in a better structural integrity, that's my opinion of stupid girl
for the weight consideration I have to say that i didn't tough this was so important. Will the plane be out of balance and unable to fly????????[]

my choice of allyphatic glue come also from the fact that I am in charge of the final sanding and covering of all the airplanes my husband build (salmonbug has very bad tastes for color scheme) and my experience sanding structures showed me that it's very difficult to obtain smooth regular sanding in aera containing "blops" of CA, the dry CA is much more hard than the wood !, you don't have that problem with alliphatic glue
