[Straightup]

This bro just got a balsa store going:

FWIW: I will continue to buy balsa where I can get 6-10lb/cu. ft....balsa selection alone on a 40 size plane could result in a 8 oz. difference in the final weight.

That said, I have never been dissapointed in a kit I have received from Swany's House.

Do you know where Paul gets his balsa? I have a scratch LamYak in the works and would like strong , but light as possible for an electric build

YEP " THE BALSA STORE"

So how do you decide who gets the <10lb/cuft, and who gets the 16lb stuff Clay?

Not that it matters to me personally, because after sending my last order back twice; I'll never deal with you again.

I am very sorry you received heavy balsa .... As I explained to you I personnally pulled the wood to be sent to you and the guy I had doing my packing and shipping pulled other material for your shipment.... I refunded all your funds including shipping both ways.... WHAT ELSE can I say........

FWIW, I just threw my Brutus-built Primo ARF on the scale:

Fuse (incl rudder, gear, mounting blocks, but no wheels) - 12.0 oz
Wing (incl ails and hatches) - 11.3 oz
Elevator/stab - 1.9 oz

Total - 25.2 oz

This plane is COVERED, not in the bones.

Wow, you got a good one dude. I just dug into the archives and every 40 I've weighed since I got the kitchen scale has been between 22-24 oz's. I built yours before I started keeping track though.

Cool! Since I'm going e-:gay:, every ounce is going to count.

At the time of the picture it was a 493 stroker 440 w/ reverse manual VB auto. Its being converted to a 6.1L SRT8 Hemi.

I too have a 69 Dart. Its a Swinger 340 4spd car. It has a 6.1L Hemi in it. I am in the process of doing a color change on the car. Its now B5 with white interior. Its being changed to Platinum silver with red interior. Pick is of it with the 5.7L, the 6.1 sits there now.

Don't know about a Dart or a Swinger, but my Primo 40 in the bones is 21.5 oz RTC just weighed it last night.
