Bob,
I know it's been nearly two months since I got my Durobatics from you. But, here is a peek at what I'm working on. This is a beta build of a fuselage that uses your 025 Durobatics as a skin over laser cut 1/32 ply. This picture is taken just before gluing the Durobatics skin on and wrapping around the skeleton. Weight is less than a similar sized full fuselage made from 2mm Depron. And, it's really rigid. I'm still drawing and redrawing the laser cut pieces so it's a work in progress. Also, I have now successfully laser cut Durobatics. It cuts nicely.
