Default RE: Building the original Byron P-51 Mustang

Thanks, Scott. Glad you found this thread! I'll check into that laminating system. I just got back from the hobby shop and I did end up getting some of the Z poxy finishing epoxy. Still don't know if I am going to use it though. That step is about a week away yet. I got hinges, more plywood for the hinge covers etc,etc,etc.
Jkpape,
Yes you are right. I ment to say finishing epoxy resin LOL. I still need to finish the build and then I will worry about the finishing. All I know is that I want the plane to look like it just came off of the show room floor - no weathering, no making it look like it has been in many battles etc. I see many P-51s out there that were meticulasly finished and had many hours on them to do a killer paint job, then spend many more hours chipping all of the paint off to make them look "weathered". To most, that looks really cool, but I just want something different.
Stay tuned Yall!
Jeff
