Too bad they don't make "David Duckett's Instant Museum Quality Spray"... just spray onto a jumbled pile of balsa wood and it automatically transforms into a museum model!!!! plasticbuddha 27-Aug-07 19:52 This pig is so going to be tail heavy!!!! David Duckett 27-Aug-07 20:02 They do make such a thing but it costs a Gazillion dollars and can only be delivered by private jet, say, a Boeing 777. If you're poor, just keep building. Look at all you have already learned! poppy 28-Aug-07 10:41 Building with balsa is very forgiving. With care and some filler and sanding, you can get it right. If not satisfied, it can be removed and redone, unlike plastics. There is no magic, just patience. plasticbuddha 28-Aug-07 11:00 David - I am unfortunately poor so no DD spray for me. I have learned a great deal thus far thanks to sage advice and all of the quasi tutorials from the numerous "build" pics that you, poppy and others have posted. Poppy - thank you for the insight. You are most certainly correct. I'm only surprised that I haven't managed to poke a hole in the covering yet, what with all of the handling thus far. A question for either you or DD - I'm getting inconsistent curing out of the Hobbylite filler- sometimes the application cures and sometimes it remains tacky. With regards to the printed directions, am I supposed to stir the ENTIRE jar or just what I scoop out? David Duckett 28-Aug-07 11:08 Drying time usually depends on the thickness. Stir the ENTIRE jar and add small amounts of water to thin it out Please sign in to comment on this image.
