SteveM, Image # 7274 | 21 Mar 08 16:39 | DD's master carvings get a coat of the good stuff. |
SteveM, Image # 7247 | 21 Mar 08 02:26 | Weight as shown is 6.6 grams. But now I have to wait for tissue from Easy Built. |
SteveM, Image # 7242 | 20 Mar 08 22:03 | 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. |
SteveM, Comment for image # 7230 | 20 Mar 08 17:30 | 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. |
SteveM, Image # 7235 | 20 Mar 08 16:48 | 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. |
SteveM, Image # 7231 | 20 Mar 08 16:22 | 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. |
SteveM, Image # 7230 | 20 Mar 08 16:16 | All of the sheet wood weighs 3.8 grams. Two sheets were light, one was VERY heavy. |
