Our spruce kits are designed to encourage the builder to personally
produce the components for his aircraft with a minimum of investment in
shop equipment. A table saw is an asset, but an aircraft can be built
completely with the use of only hand tools. The complete kits listed below
contain all the spruce required for the aircraft. Kits marked ** contain
the wing and aileron spars finished to the net dimensions called out in
the plans, without beveling. In all other kits the wing and aileron spars
are S2S (surfaced two sides) spar stock that is to be cut to the finished
pieces.
The rib and stringer stock are supplied S2S to the net thickness required
and are to be run through a table saw one way to produce the finished
pieces. One board 1/4" thick x nominal 6" wide will yield about
16 pieces of finished 1/4 x 1/4 capstrip. Without the use of a table saw,
the builder should order only a Spar Kit, which includes the wing and
aileron spars finished to net dimensions (unbeveled), then order the capstrip
and milled stock as needed. No plywood, glue, nails or other supplies
are included in our spruce kits. All materials must be ordered individually
as priced in this catalog. Spruce kits are well packed, shipped by truck
and insured for value by the carrier. Export orders are solicited. Prompt
and efficient handling is assured. Since all spruce is milled to individual
requirements and cannot be stocked in finished condition, payment in full
is requested with order.
Our spruce kits are produced from materials lists which are believed
to be accurate. However, since designers may modify certain dimensions
after the original plans are released, we urge the builder to verify sizes
and current price before ordering.
