I have been pretty busy lately so I am getting a late start on my next build. I pulled out my next few builds but I will be starting with the Stinger rocket, simple and should fit into my busy schedule.

Pretty fast build, the fins are sealed with 3 coats of Brodak sealer and I am currenly adding the fillets, picture to follow. Tomorrow I will apply the Gloss white followed by orange. In the mean time I did find a good use for my old Vacuum former, works great as a downdraft table for dust. I will also post this in the technique section. Pretty basic, attach vacuum hose and sand away. Sucks the balsa part on the board and there is no dust, I was sanding inside for the first time. I also tried it with scrap balsa covered with Elmers wood filler, worked great.

All built ready for white and orange paint, my Guillows Spitfire in the back.

Great use for the old vacuform. I use to make canopies for guys on another form with mine.

Have you been using the Brodak on the tissue - If so how many coats? The Spitfire looks fantastic.

This was a fast easy build, after Brodak balsa sealer I shot Old Krylon Glossy white followed by Old Krylon orange. The decals are simple and went on with no issues.
