Default First Kit. Need Help with Supplies!
Hey Everyone,

I'm going to be getting my Aero-Star kit soon. But before it comes, I'd like to start shopping for my building supplies. Already got my working area started on.

I'd like to find out what supplies I should be looking for. Also, which brands are the best used so far. Such as types of epoxy, ca (what does that stand for anyhow?), sandpaper, iron/heat gun, etc.

Also, if anyone out there has built one of these kits (or similar type) I'd like to find out if I should watch out for anything in particular when building. I've already sent out for Getting Airborne #1 and 2 by Harry Higley. And when it comes time for covering, Tom's Techniques by Higley also. Can't wait to get started!

On Tower Hobbies, I found this neat little covering/trim chart to use.

Like always, any help is very appreciated.
