Thanks for the feedback guys...I'll definitely watch the weight. Ever since my supposed 8lb Laser weighed in over 11lb using the kit materials a few years back, I've been really picky about materials and construction. My forstner bits usually get a workout as well...

GW, I noticed from your construction page that the wood fuse exterior is solid (i.e. no lightening holes). I'm presuming this is for glassing...does the Typhoon need to be glassed for stiffness, durability, etc.? I've done some glass work, but not an entire ship. How about the wings, should they be glassed as well? Thanks again!
