Hello Bernie,

I'd recommend a few redesigns for the KR2-S (see attached)!

Best Regards,

Subject: KR>Starting boat layout


I hope my questions aren't too basic for the group but....
After an approximate 15 year lay off, I'm resuming construction on my KR2.
I'm laying out the completed fuselage sides on the work table for "boat" 
assembly and am concerned that if I follow the dimensions called for by 
the plans for the belly cross members (especially at station C) , I'm 
going to have a huge pile of tooth picks on my hands!
Does it make sense to dampen the fuselage sides to make them more 
pliable (they're 15 years old and have been carefully wrapped and kept 
in a fairly humid basement for the past 15 years), or should I just bite 
the bullet and follow the plans to the letter and hope for no 
explosions? I'm going to use T-88 epoxy for the balance of the project.
I'd appreciate any input the list can provide.
Happy Holidays from Poplar Grove IL
