Default 40% Carden Extra 300, My first Build ever !

Okay guys I'm gonna pop my Carden Cherry on this 40% extra 300. I hope to start building soon but right now I am getting my shop in order. I just built 2 new benches, a 8 foot work bench and a 8x3 foot build table. The build table is made out of 3/4 inch Birch wood and the top is perty close to dead nutz flat. I am still doing some research online about build methods / tricks. As I said this is my first build ever, luckily there are some real cool guys int he STL that have offered to nelp a noob out, so hopefully with a bit of luck and a lot of glue I can get a bird that dont fly 1/2 bad. I will apologize in advance, at times the progress of the build will be slow work is killer right now.

Some things I need to figure out :

1. What glue to use and where.

2. Best way to lighten the motor box :

Thinking of following what walt did here : - I just have to make templates
