shaping wing tip
what "rule of thumb" can I use when shaping my wing tips?It's a TF 63'' p-47. the instructions just say "shape the tips with a sanding block". Is their a specific thickness I should end up with (like the very edge) winding up being an 1/8th inch. continue the natural angle of the wing all the way to the tip ?? etc..
any advise would be good

Moe,
Double and triple posting your questions is against RCU rules and pretty annoying for the rest of us who have to sift through them.
I answered your post in "Beginners', so if you'd edit these to say "Closed" in the subject line, I for one would appreciate it.

Hey moe!
If you're building it to be scale or scale-like, look at the plans, look for pictures (search here at RCU and elsewhere on the Internet).
If not, use the TLAR method. That Looks About Right.
