    Scale Wendell Hostetler 30% PA-28 Cherokee Build

    Do you know what size the exhaust nut is? I'm looking for alternatives for the GF 40!

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Couple more. I also found that with the added 1/8" forward sheeting, the firewall is the right shape for the upper sheeting.

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    These next steps are very confusing on the Nosen plans. Took a lot of looking at other builds to get an idea of how this is supposed to go, but I think its close, though I probably did it wrong. The Nosen plans don't show a lower vertical stringer at the front of the cabin, but I may put one in...

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    These next steps are not all that clear. But I looked through several build threads, mostly the BUSA Cub, and went with some of those instead of stock. I used the 3/16 round stock included with the kit for the top sides, but ripped some 1/4 x 1/2 spruce down to 3/16 x 3/16 for the side...

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Thanks guys! So If I'm thinking right, I take out the verticle 1/4 x 1/4, then add some ply along the bottom of the cracked stringer, then add a new verticle with gussets?? Thanks agian.

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Was a little reluctant to just glue the forward support to the top of F5, so I made a resess in the side sheeting to accept the support. It should give me a good solid windsheild support now, as well as help support the wing tube area. I'll do the same on the other side. I also need some...

    Looks good. Are you planning on wing lights?
