Messy
In order to build the “perfect plane” I have to have “peace of mind”. 
This can be achieved in an environment that is fully Feng Shui, organised and clean. As the current building room is not yet up to par, some work needs to be done here…

After some hard work, where I added a large table and some storage place on the wall, I organised the RC- kit that was rusting away up till now in the shed outside. Now this is starting look like a proper building room.Build plank
The only thing that is still lacking is a build-plank.Requirements for this build plank are:
- Perfectly straight so wings will not get build warped
- Long enough, so all parts fit on the table
- slightly soft, so I can push needles in the surface
Surfaces that have been considered are (o.a.):
- Dry-wall
- Cork (also used as sound insulator on walls)
- regular plywood
I settled for the plywood, as my previous builds have been made on this as well and I have no complaints on this material. I bought some 10mm plywood (1220x610mm) and put some iron-on strips on the sides to prevent splintering (looks really nice to…). As @rob is going to try out some industrial cork, I am really curious as to how that works. That could be a nice upgrade in the future. Dry-wall is not my material of choice as I suspect that pushing in pins and needles in roughly the same spot will cause a messy surface.
So now that all the preparations are done,… let’s get building![kkstarratings]
