A couple of squares, long and short rulers, and someone who can come round and give you pointers..

I'm also going through my first kit build!

Just ask if you need any help. I've built one so I should know how to get you through any problems.

You list looks good to me. Have you decided on an engine? Are you going to do a build thread? I would love to see a build of this aircraft from someone else to see how they do things, and its your first kit, always gotta do a thread on the first!!!!!!

Happy building!!

Jason
