Re: ken's 126 carden
Congratulations on getting your new kit. You should enjoy the quality and the way it goes together. Is that Duct Tape holder the table top together?

Re: ken's 126 carden
Did you give up on the lightening of the 35% or just put it aside?
Just FYI: the fuse trusses themselves are about 82" long

Re: ken's 126 carden
Good luck with the build.
Quick question......... is that a wing for a TF giant Corsair in the background. It looks quite familiar  Cheers, Dave
