ABOUT THE WOOD IN THE KIT
We strive to supply good quality materials in your kit.
Wood parts are inspected with regard to the function
they will serve. If an imperfection is spotted in a scrap
corner of a die-cut sheet and doesn't affect actual parts,
the sheet is considered acceptable. Also, internal
stresses in wood are relieved as it is cut into parts.
These relieved stresses may cause some parts to bow.
Bows in wood parts (such as leading edges) readily
straighten out as they are Super Jeted into a structural
unit
WOOD PARTS
Be careful when removing parts (such as fuselage
sides) from the die-cut sheets. Long parts are fragile
until Super Jeted into a structural unit. If necessary,
use a razor knife or razor saw to assist in the removal
of parts from the sheet. Sometimes a little trimming and
sanding can improve parts, where desired. Save scrap
until the model is completed, in case a part is missing
or damaged. Also, scrap is used in some building
steps.
