| hjlittman | Scratch Built Brewster Buffalo | Build | 25-May-25 00:19 |  | | Views : 110 | | Working over the same plan, I pinned down my keel and working from back to front, using my right angle tools I put in the formers, after I put the 1/16" square side keel on I took the falf shell off the plan and used the popsicle stick and smalll clamp method to put the other half of the fromers on. |

| hjlittman | Scratch Built Brewster Buffalo | Build | 25-May-25 00:11 |  | | Views : 101 | | The article calls for building it on a crutch, freehanded, from the wings out. I decided that the way the build was described in the 1938 article was insale so I decided to build it on a proper crutch using the same plan. I have to problems with horizontal crutch fuselages but this one still proved problematic and after II had the formers glued in and cur the crossmembers out of the crutch before putting the 1/32" square stringers on I realized that I was buildg a banana so I changed plan. |
