New scratch built builder question. Do you use light ply ofr balsa for the feusealge construction? Like I said I am new to this. I have built kits but never from scratch. Project is a B-17G 125" WS ebay plans. Plans are not specific. Please help?

When I contacted Bill at Bob Dively he said for a fact that he was not making the parts for your plane. So who has their infomation wrong here. What's the truth and what is not, you're the one that wants to sell this kit shouldn't you be a little more up front or truthful about what's going on.

Needless to say I have heard enough to turn me off from this project.

SWEEEEEEEEET!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hopefully you stay off of this thread to. Sounds like a lurker with nothing better to do. Probably can barely fly a trainer.

Hey Mkjprice the normal is to use light ply for former and some aircraft ply in aeras where you will need the strenght like wing mounts or gear mount aeras balsa stringers and balsa sheeting if you need more help let me know I cut kits so can give you the right ways to go about your build

How thick of fly is best recommended. I was originally thinking 1/16 to 1/8.

I dont think he's working on this plane right now. I know he's not working on it cause he is working on my Carden 260. He might get to it next year.
