For a localized sharper bend like this, try brushing on some "Windex" window cleaner to where the bend will be and wait 5-10 minutes. I'll glue in the first position, then apply. By brushing you can avoid the glueing areas and make the balsa "Bendy" only where you want it "Bendy" i.e. nice and springy for the long fuselage swoopees. It's the amonia in the Windex that relaxes the grain. You can also use the method to pre-bend areas if you prefer. Xanadu 03-Oct-09 19:16 That is why I soak my stringers in hot water for a bit, then put them on. They bend quite easily then. RodN 04-Oct-09 05:43 Hey I did exactly the same thing!! Once they are blocked in and sanded you will never know though. Please sign in to comment on this image.
