As a newcomer to the hobby I started with an interest in flying but built a Sig kit to see what was involved and discovered a love of building.
Now, I have several kits in inventory for future enjoyment and look forward to developing new skills. I would love to build from plans but am intimidated by all of the non-wood fabrication required....eg cowls, wheel pants, canopies, etc, etc. How do you more experienced builders approach that issue?

This is a very deep hobby. There is lots of enjoyment for everyone, regardless of where they lay on the ARF to scratch-builder spectrum.

Thanks

Tim

I agree with marusha (Tim)with the above comment. I"m also newcomer. Love to build, love to fly. Gotenough tools to get a kit built, would loveto learn how to build from scratch/plans. Got a scroll saw that I couldn't cut a straight line if my life depended on it. Only used it a few times. I guess it's trial and error and you learn new skills. But it's is justintimidating on how to get started andwhat do you look for.
