Hey there Glowplubboy, nice to hear you're moving around!! As far as balsa goes, a balsa fuse will hold up surprisingly well if you use coro doublers and a litlle bi-di. The original 2548 prototype is still in relatively one piece, although battered, and it was a balsa/coro/foam fuse. As far as DOOM for the Texas crew goes....BRING IT!!

Hope you make it up Dallas way this year, let me know if ya can..
