Default RE: Midwest Sweet Stick Revival (a work in progress)

I'll keep posting updates till it's back in the air..

I'm having fun with it.. Worse case I have the plans and can build another one from scratch.

No new pics but a little progress.

Just to try something new I chose to use my router table for rounding over the edges and cutting the hinge line bevels on the new surfaces.
My router is a bit overkill for the job.. 3 1/2 HP Hitachi M12V.. an 11lb beast.

It worked great but you need to be extra carefull.

I finished hinging the elevator using robart hinges. I used many of the tips form airfield models.
