hi
well the first place to start is here [link]http://www.spadtothebone.com[/link],
grab yourself some plans from there, the main materials in spad is a material called Coroplast (corrugated plastic), you can get it at most sign shops, or you could try and get some old signs from a real estate business.
also if you havnt already have a browse here [link]http://spadworld.net[/link], its SPADS main forum, you will find plenty of help on here or spadworld.
good luck in building your first spad.

cheers

Or if you want to buy check out the SPAD ARF link from the SPAD home page, boogerboy hobbies or plastic concept planes are 2 places to start
