Why stop there? No synthetic glues. Boil down your own animal parts.....

I'll be substituting the "Buy" with a "Build" on my entry and I will

and WC in all areas of modelling, I suspect you will find that many
build thier own or are working closely with a mfg to help design and
build the models they fly.
I think they should outlaw laser cut parts and any other power tools
from the woody contests. Nothing more than razor blades and
sandpaper are allowed ;-)

Ray,
"no store bought" Are you kidding? That is heresy!
It's sad but it looks like (from the lack of anyone responding to your post
in the last 24hr) this is going to be the "BBBBB&Y" (Big Boy, Big Bucks, Buy
& Fly) contest. You have to save your support money for the
craftsman/builder events. It looks like no one values, or gives any
consideration, to the people that have the skill and determination to build
what they fly. Not a big enough market I guess.

John and LSF,
You guys should be Knighted. Get it on big time TV and include some
aerobatics footage to spark it up. I truly hope this is a winner.
I will be delighted to donate a $100.00, $75.00 and $50.00 for Cash awards
to first thru third place in a woody class. Like the Southwest Classic
does it with 2m, RES and Grey Cup, not separate flight groups, just separate
class scoring.
Providing the woody qualification rules are:
Built up wood flying surfaces, with or without a glass fuse, no restrictions
on spar construction, no molded d-tube, no foam, no store bought, AMA
unlimited class.
