Incidence Meter along with a small (can be an elcheapo) level. This will make your first flight so much better as you will only be out of trim a click or two if you sight it right.

Demel Tool and a drum cutter, cut off wheel, ball end cutter, tapered stone is nice, too.

6/32 tap bit... if that is the size of engine mounting bolts
Ball driver to fit the 6/32 socket head bolts

Sanding blocks (can be homemade)

Xacto Knifes #11's

Acetone......to clean up CA off your covering (and epoxy) I use Stripease Furnature stripper.


Foam pads ........to keep the hangar rash down...lay your wing on it or lay your fuselage on it as you are working or covering.

36" steel yardstick........to cut straight covering edges..

Hotsock for your covering iron.......or make your own out of plain cotton and a draw string.

A set of small aluminum triangles for aligining ribs, formers, and just about everything else (Dubro?)


Thats all for now........Are you broke$$$ yet?
