This is a very large box and former fuselage with very fragile Dumas Stringers. I changed these out for some Guillow's stringers and stopped replacing broken stringers every single time I picked it up. the laser pieces make everything fit very nicely

How did this project turn out?

Bill, I am still working this project, my wife has reminded me that this is going to a boy whose dad is in the Afghanistan area at the moment. I don't keep any of the builds, they all go somewhere. Of course he doesn't have anything that fills his driveway, but it will hang over his bed. I can't get over how strong this build is, for a box and former plane it is pretty tough.

I just finished this kit, and wanted to see how your's turned out. Standing by, moist with anticipation...*G*

Using 3/32" stringers instead of 1/16" ones will make it even tougher. This is the same type of construction used in the Diels kit of this plane.
