| scigs30 | Sterling Super Cub | Build | 04-Feb-24 07:32 |  | | Views : 1816 | | She is all done and weight as shown is 18 grams. Here are the tools I used to get her done. Yes that is an old Peck Polymers balsa building board.. I finished her with 2 coats of dope and decals. The decals are hard to use but get a good coat of Testors Glosscote before using. |
