Default RE: Top Flight Sea Fury 60 Kit Questions

Well, I'm back. Here are pictures of the finsihed fin/rudder and stab/elevator. Built per plan, but I still need to detail the fin sheetnig when it comes time to attach to the elevator. Also started on the wing, pic attached. Guess I'll post some progress pictures from time to time. I'm kinda slow, but I will finish someday. Had a interesting thing happen when I glued to balsa and basswood spar pieces together. One of them bowed a little, and I didn't notice until it was time to install it. Had to use some weight when glueing the sheer webs. Should be ok. And sanding those stab and rudder tips is.....well it sucks. I finally got out my palm sander and rough sanded them to about 1/8" from finish. Just have to be REAL carefull not to go to far, but saved some elbow grease. Until next time.........................
