| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 09-Jul-07 21:05 |  | | Views : 617 | | Enough polishing for now. We must start the rear wood as we keep handling the front and breaking stringers in the rear! |
| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 08-Jul-07 16:23 |  | | Views : 655 | | The boys "Love the smell of Epoxy in the morining!" tis the smell of completion. Tin knocking skills aside, Sasha and Niki turn to carpentry to cover the rear end in wood. |
