Well I use two boards, then I can have all the mess on one board and keep the other one tidy.
I'm actually using the glow version of the MVVS 1.50 but with the Walbro carb.
This engine is about 800gr and the pipe is rather heavy at 210gr.
I'm interested in trying a gas engine but then I would use the MVVS 2.15 but weighting 1500gr that means moving the wings forward and probably molding the top and lower half of the fuselage and also the canopy to save weight.
Specially for you flyintexan a picture of some covering bits and the brand new glass plate I cut my film on, my old one was to small for the Typhoon, also some templates for this plane.
Check out my thread on gas engine in a pattern plane. You'd probably hadn't had any problems with it. I can also get you a quite cheap carbon pipe from my friend in Poland. It is much lighter than other mfg's pipes and cheaper too!!
