RE: tools
I'm still useing my grandfathers carpenters tools. they may not be the glitzy chrome plated junk you buy today. the old tools hold an edge that you can hone very sharp over and over again, try that with the new stuff. the basics do the job, the rest are for show and tell, of how many $$$ you have invested. spend your $$ on plans, balsa, cement and covering . am an old timer, modeling since 1930's and still producing giant size, one of a kind models. dick
