Prof Bill,
Are you saying, I am going to get Cancer now?
That sucks, I Smoke, I drink, and Now I am a dead man. Guess we all gotta go sometime?
Seriously though, I wasn't aware of any issues.
Guess only time will tell.
Thanks for the tip.

The money I saved from not smoking could've paid for my PPL.
God's in command, I'm just the Pilot.

covering your pit?
Ok. Its a little late to bring up now but has anyone thought about using thin aluminum. Home depot sells rolls of aluminum for flashing. I thought about using the roll of aluminum on my mdf ribs. Any thoughts?

Actually if you could manage to cut the curves right, and not kink the aluminum, the look would be amazing. You could use pan head screws too instead of rivots and they would look awesome.
If you have the time and the patience and your ribs are close enough together, the effect would be awesome.

I frequent alot of Homebuilt airplane webpages. I have picked up alot of ideas about how to put together a Sim just by watching how they do it. Simpit building of the Shell and MIP is basicly the same as a KitPlane. I know one flies for real and one doesnt but you get my point.

Just skimmed through a few questions and comments.
Just to let people know..
I fiberglassed two side panels once for a vintage motorbike.. they were quite small. But it really did stink the place out.
When fiberglassing wear all safety gear (e.g Gloves, masks)
And make a mould out of something smooth and shiny. (I say shiny, because you don't want the fiberglass to stick)
And Ali is very good. I use Aliminium off old caravans. Its perfect for bending into shape, and leaves everything smooth.
A tip is make what ever your making out of wood, then put Ali over the top if it.
Thats what my Father did with a pickup to make a cheap truckman top.. looked good too
Just a few pointers.
