Default RE: Sig 4*40 First time builder... BUILD THREAD!

I built this too (build thread somewhere here on RCU). You'll love it.

I agree with MasterAlex in that there is a special feeling of accomplishment when you fly something you have built.

One tip: take your time! You are building at an incredible rate. Going too fast may lead to skipping a step or not getting something right. Make sure you dry fit before you glue.
Like vmsguy I don't use CA very much at all - just for strengthening the threads in holes for nylon bolts and for CA hinges. Everything else is wood glue. When you use CA have a fan blow the fumes away and wear a mask. If you can, glue as far away from your face as you can.

Looking good!
