    Scale Mick Reeves 1/3 scale Tiger Moth

    Wing spars are two 3/8 stock pieces glued together x 54"(ish), x 2 spars per wing section x 4 wing sections = 16 pieces at 54" each or 72' of 3/8 stock. Don't want to know what Aircraft spruce would cost but I don't think I want to know....... I might cut my own.

    Scale Mick Reeves 1/3 scale Tiger Moth

    I don't want to break the assemblage popping it off the glass. Been there done that. In the end I decided to try saran wrap. And used wood glue. It worked just fine. The assembly popped off easily.

    Scale Mick Reeves 1/3 scale Tiger Moth

    Kit comments recommend assembling with CA glue then strengthen with PVA glue. That might help worth assembling on glass. That or I assemble on wax paper over the glass with wood glue. I've used this Super 'Phatic glue recently with great results. It is very penetrating. PVA is wood glue?
