I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

DD's master carvings get a coat of the good stuff.

Weight as shown is 6.6 grams. But now I have to wait for tissue from Easy Built.

The three of the 11" long kit stringers weigh as much as six of the 18" long stringers that I cut myself. Rather than cut into a fresh balsa sheet, these are cut from the edges of the Dumas sheet wood that was in my Corsair kit.

Total weight after replacing all parts from the heavy sheet is 3.0 grams. I think I will try to make this a rubber FF so I am paying close attention to the weight.

The new part is nearly half the weight of the heavy kit part, but is still 50% heavier than the lighter kit part. Goes to show that even Guillow's can have quility wood from time to time.

The piece in the back weighs 0.4 grams, the one in the front weighs 1.1 grams. And that was after I sanded the sheet for several minutes! I don't have any 1/20" sheet stock but I have some 1/32" that is just about the same thickness.

All of the sheet wood weighs 3.8 grams. Two sheets were light, one was VERY heavy.
