The canopy scrip I do on the plug befor you make the mold for it, so it has the line in the canopy mold to cut it too. i use tape to do the scribe line first. Then I glue the part in the mold and lay it up.
I miss my wife so much when she's away for work. The few days every 4 to 6 weeks that I get to hold her are heaven sent. She needs to come home permanently!
Gostaria de expressar minha admiração pelo seu trabalho, pelo quanto poderia ilustrar novos caminhos à muitas crianças e jovens. Possuo um trabalho com crianças de comunidades à beira de rios e lagos.Estou na Amazônia aguardando sua visita. Que Deus te ilumine!
Thanks for the Stab Layup series Evan. I attended one of your courses about 12 years ago and learnt so much from it [most of which I've managed to forget]. Keep up the great work!
Evan, your video tutorials always inspire me to try new skills. I'm building a '70s glider with glass fuse and built-up wings. The designer used 1/16" x 3/8" spring steel blades plugged into laminated ply box to secure wing roots to fuse. Your video makes me wonder if your joiner/box concept could be used instead? I'd like to remain true to the original intent, but maybe a little update for weight/strength benefit? Anyway, your joiners are much thicker than the 1/16" blade I'd be emulating. Would you share any thoughts you might have, before I attempt the impossible? 😉 Thanks again, Evan
Evan, this is very helpful, walk-through process. I have to ask a stupid question. You painted the inside of the mold yellow. Yet the fuselage came out yellow? I obviously missed something?? Thanks
Thank you so much for sharing such a detailed series of videos on your techniques Evan. This must be the most under viewed moulding series on UA-cam! Right, time to mix some paint - wish me luck!
I want to thank you so much. I was a competition full size glider pilot... WN - USA. I also was a RC model glider builder and flier. My pride and joy was the Dodgson Design Windsong which was a fun build and great flying machine back in its day. ua-cam.com/video/KJj2p5vMEko/v-deo.html I am going to move to the Philippines and will be buying a place and making a model shop with my son and teach him "the way". I have been searching the net for someone like you !!! You have taken the time to teach me (and many other viewers) the "up to date" building techniques of composite building. My goal is to make a modified Windsong and you have taught me all the necessary things to succeed!!! I am so thankful to you for your sharing of your skill !! If and when I start building I will come to your YT channel and connect. In the mean time.......again.....THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mike and Curt.
Hi Evan My it is Tony I live in the UK England, and I'm just building a glass 48" flying wing, Your videos are amazing very detailed but I would love to know how you apply the K2 paint to the mould to achieve two different colours? Kind regards Tony
Hi Evan I absolutely love your videos they are so detailed, but there's just one thing how do you mask your wings to apply different coloured stripes and what type of paint do you use, Regards Tony
Evan, that was a great tutorial. You are truly a master. Thanks, bru. Now, how do you use this mould. Video of te moulding process. Thanks, again. What did you use to make the plug?
Fantastic work Evan and thank you for doing these videos. The only feedback I can give you is that I'm finding it very hard to hear you talking as the microphone is not picking you up good enough on these videos

thank you for this vid

Thank you very much, wondering how i could get away from the home made box Fuselage look. Awesome video

I would love to make a mold of my favorite sail plane fuselage. No longer in production. I still have two fuses and one canopy
Evan, this is very helpful, walk-through process. I have to ask a stupid question. You painted the inside of the mold yellow. Yet the fuselage came out yellow? I obviously missed something?? Thanks
Hello, can you give me the address where can I buy the gelcoat type epoxy?
Neat!
Stupid question time, do you need to add any release agent on the mylars? Weather you paint them or just use them bare. Many thanks awesome videos.
Thank you so much for sharing such a detailed series of videos on your techniques Evan. This must be the most under viewed moulding series on UA-cam! Right, time to mix some paint - wish me luck!
Great work, When I put in Tow I trap in in the layer of fiberglass
Great tutorial ! What is this material used as a skin?
Give me a call next time I can save you alot of time. Matney Models
great tutorial, how is the project currently: hope to see a flight video.
Please respect your viewers do not film the video vertically.
Very good...!

Thank you for sharing the knowledge

good video, thanks
thanks Evan very helpful video I am up to this stage now with my own mould
And here I am wondering how to do this molds... Could I also do that with a foam fuselage

useful knowledge. I want to learn from you, do you have e-mail? I have a few questions. Please teach me, sir
So I've seen all 17 parts. What's this plane going to be used for? F3J?
TheSlumpen, yes it’s an F3J glider. Can be converter to F5J by adding a motor.
Excellent, going to be stunning in the air!
Gorgeous !
Lovely it is like Christmas
are you using ISO BOARD FOAM on your wing Evan?
Yes. I get it from Unicornice. (065) 896-5768
Many Thanks Evan
thanks for the imagination ignition Evan 100%
brilliant I have just started experimenting with the foam board so seeing this Evan is great
Many Thanks Evan 10/10
Evan are you using a really slow epoxy hardener
WOW - that was a pleasure to watch. Love what you are doing! Keep it up.Iam now your channel subscriber.Don't forget to watch my channel too
Many thanks Evan
So long time I´ve been wondering how this is done. Now I know! Big thumbs up!
great, music is cool too
Fantastic work Evan and thank you for doing these videos. The only feedback I can give you is that I'm finding it very hard to hear you talking as the microphone is not picking you up good enough on these videos
