what did you build it with? as in what kind of wood, glue, and how did you reinforce your joints with?

thanks, Dewayne

The plane is made of balsa and ply, the longerones are made from spruce. I am using epoxy & aliphatic glue for all construction. The joints are reinforced by 1/4" ply "U" pieces. (very strong.) the plane will be covered with "Sig Koverall" fabric. a lot of balsa in this project, mainly in the wings.
The plane will probbably have an active spray system. (that will be decided after maiden flight!).
Thanks all, will keep updating.
