Untaping error under repair. Not sure of the reason. 2 possibilities: 1, pulled tape at the wromg angle (towards the the red instead of towards the white, 2. I got impatient with the acrylic white paint coverage and put 2 coats of Krylon white on and the latex didn't stick well. After this I sanded the white lightly before painging over it. Those 2 corrections seemed to have helped. |

| Neat item. I'm on EBay all the time and I'm always wondering if I'm bidding against you guys. |

| IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED - I was just on EBAY and saw a Guillow's balsa building board (35x 14). I like mine. It's listed under "Comet balsa model airplane kits". |

Here they are with the glue drying. Note the focus. I believe the camera may have a gremlin living in it. |

Here are the parts ready for assembly |

Working on the LG. Brian, notice how the focus changes from the bottom to the top of the picture. |

| The Basler Corp., in Oshkosh, modifies the DC-3, by adding 5 feet to the fuselage, changing to turbo props, modifying the wing and in general beefing it up. It's the plans from Guillow's and a couple of others I found on line combined. |

| I'm playing catch up here, don. is this an offspring of the dc series? looks like you built it with ease. |

| It's a red Sharpie. I definitely bleeds a bit with the dope at the beginning, but I haven't noticed a problem with the paint. It doesn't bleed with the gray automotive filler primer (but dope does soften the gray primer) and the acrylic doesn't seem to bother it. There's probably a better red pen to use. That's just what I have on hand. |

| Don,Question: You use red pen to mark how far to sand, right? If so, have you ever had problems with the red bleeding through your paint?
