| BriandKilby, Comment for image # 718 | 26 Jul 10 05:51 | | i'm not an expert, but i think dumas wood is lighter, but not as strong as guillows. |
| pakasit1812, Comment for image # 718 | 26 Jul 10 02:39 | | James, we are grateful for your time and effort to keep this website enjoyable among all of us.
BTW, I am building a 37" span Antoinette 1907. This will
be the largest model my VW can cope with.
Thank you, James. |
| jgood, Comment for image # 718 | 25 Jul 10 14:41 | | Yes, much better wood than a standard die-cut Guillows kit, marlinus. Pak, it has a 36" wingspan, and I was planning on using an IPS motor. Unfortunately, it's still sitting pretty much as you see here! BTW, the site may be very slow tonight, I'm doing a big backup, and using lots of bandwidth to move the backup off the server. Thanks for your patience in advance! |
| pakasit1812, Comment for image # 718 | 25 Jul 10 02:54 | | What is the wingspan and motor James? |
| marlinus64, Comment for image # 718 | 24 Jul 10 17:06 | | The wood in this kit looks fantastic. Is the laser cut wood in a Dumas kit really that much better than a die cut Guillows? i have only sen or worked with Guillow's kits so i have no way to draw my own conclusions at this point. |
