Well, I was going to build the plane, but it looks like thats not going to happen any time soon. I just got my trainer, so I wanted to start looking for the building materials, then get the kit. By the time I would be finished I was hoping to be ready for it. And if I wasn't, then I would wait. However, my dad said no. So, basically he doesn't want my taking over his workbench for the whole time it would take me to build it, which my guess would be like a year. Even though I have my own workbench, I have a tendency to take over his too when i work on a big project. So thanks for the suggestions, but i don't think i will be using them, yet.

I have a large train table that never gets used. So I hope to clear that off, and then have a very large table to use. So maybe if my dad lets me clear that table, then I can start.

One more thing, how long did all of you use your trainer? My dad also wont let me build a new plane, because he thinks i wont be ready even after the long building process. I think, by the time im done I will be ready or at least close enough that I can wait till I am ready. SO how long did all you use your trainer before you moved up?
