Hello everybody, it is a very long time since I posted here, and actually I did any construction. Before I share with you my old construction, I have to confess, I did not build any aircraft for years now, but now I am ready to get back in the "game".
So, I got all the tools from here, PhlatPrinter3 and Phlatformer, so I could build my conceptions... The Fokker EIII is fascinating for me, because was a monoplane in a biplane world and most of all, it has no ailerons. The entire wing...

I managed to get most of the airframe completed today. I only found a couple of small issues that need to be addressed, but nothing major.
I did add in a carbon spar to beef up the wing. Hoping to get it completed by the weekend for a test flight.

Now its two pieces that fit into a channel in the fuselage. The detachable wing design really didn't add any value to the kit. I trimmed down the aileron width and length for better control.
I also added in a steerable tailwheel which turned out fantastic!
Now there is an internal channel that runs vertically from the wing root to the electronics compartment, for the aileron servo wiring.

Right as I was in the middle of selling my MK1.5 a buddy asked me if I could cut stencils for his company. I made a real quick cut out of FFF, and he and the boss really liked.
Well I got my PP3 running and cut the stencil out of SeeTemp. I wasn't sure how it would work, but I was REALLY PLEASANTLY surprised at how well it turned out. I made a small and large size. The pic is of the large...

This is first time I post here, and with this occasion I thank Mark and Trish for the great tools they sell.
I bought, a wile back, the Phlatformer but I never used until now. All my big size plastics are made by somebody else, but now I do all my small ones with the Phlatformer.
So, I start building an F2A-2, with the idea that I will turn it into an kit. Now I am to the second version, and beside the cockpit, dummy engine and motor cowl, I want to build the entire tail...

I recently got an http://www.XtremeFoamies.com "Flying Ghost Plane" and figured I would share the build and my thoughts with you all.

The kit arrives nicely packed, in a box sized perfect for this airplane. There is no wasted space, and you can actually get this one back in the box, if you don't start building it the second you take it out for the first time.


All the parts are labeled, and the carbon rods are placed in their respective...

I really prefer our CNC cuts over laser. The laser burns the wood and makes a mess of it.

I ordered the kit Monday and it arrived Wednesday. One piece of wood containing the rudder was warped and they are sending me a new one, but I wet the rudder and placed it in a vice between two flat pieces and it soon was back in shape.

I opted to cover the boat in Oracal...

Very nice kit Mark and Trish. You can see the thought and care that goes into these as soon as you open the box. All the parts came out great and the sticker package with it is really gonna bring this plane alive. All my micro stuff is in my Micro Ripper that I have been prototyping, but I think it's about time to retire the prototype (beat up pretty good) and put the electronics in the PhlatStang.

I think I will try and get this plane built soon.
