youre right! but i have started now and i am happy to do it this way.
the wood for this model has cost less than 25 quid (i did buy the non cnc pack at £10) and i cant afford to pay a machine £30 or more to do a bit of work for me, aeromodelling is aeromodelling and i enjoy all of it, i may have blistered fingers at the end of it but on the other hand ( pun intended) ill have a fantastic model and know that i made every bit of it.
