Thanks Gary. Almost got off on a tangent here designing a 8 foot long battery powered hand held hack saw with that cuttin wirejust to cut the occasional urethane sheet. The only time I use urethanes is for gas tank work I use polystyrene for everything else. I'll lay this topic to rest

Don't go too crazy guys. With some 36 grit sandpaper glued to an aluminum angle, you can probably sand both wings completely to shape in 2-3 hours. That's probably less time than we've killed dreaming up a "better" way to do it. I thought of a "better" way to do it with the internal

That is interesting Paul Maybe next time around ask the fellow about the wire. I could cut smaller blocks and glue it all together or glue it all together - paste some .25" thick .25" under sized airfoil templates on the ends - set the wash out - and let the wire do the work following the

I buy my foam from a cool room manufacturer. They make their own polyurethane foam sheet. They pour a mix into a steel reinforced mould 1.2m x 2.4m x 1m deep and lock a lid on before it expands. This results in a block of predictable density foam that they then cut into sheets (any thickness)

You've got me thinking here! Is that wire the same that Remington developed for hacksaws some decades back? What is the diameter and where did you locate it? I have several aluminum hot wire frames, 2'Long to 8'Long and the thought of a battery operated bandsaw type frame 6-8 feet long might be
