| I finished my second Ezedope build and I must say I am happy with this product. Unless something bad happens in the next month or so with my 2 builds, I will use Ezedope on my more fragile builds. On my bigger planes I will just stick with Nitrate dope since I don't have to worry about warps. The weight added by Ezdope does not even register on my scale so that is a good thing. All done as shown this Guillow cub weighs 22 grams, not bad for old kit wood. On the bare balsa struts I use a Red marker, much lighter than paint. I then brushed on Ezedope to give it a nice gloss finish. Normally waterslide decals do not stick to tissue, but if you brush Ezedope underneath the decal it sticks just fine. I tried adding the red and green lights on the wingtips, I'm not too happy about that but all and all a fun build. I will take her to the clubs Mooney contest on the 4th. |

| After spending months on my Guillows P-38, I decided on this build which was easy and fun. |

| Found this old plan from my younger years of building of a Fokker D-VII. The plan was done by Eastern Merchandise Company Flying Models, Brooklyn N.Y. (probably a 10cent kit in the 1940’s) |

| This old plan had no pinholes in it, so it was a kit I never got around to build. I decided to scratch build it now many years later. Found a picture in Model Airplane News that gave me a color scheme I liked. |
