Protecting plans

Hi,

Just about to start my first 'Built from Plan, aircraft (other than WOT 4's)
and wondering the best way to protect plans whilst gluing parts together.

Imagine that if not protected, Cyano etc will stick to the surface and I am
going to be ripping pieces out all over the place.

Cheers,

Griff.

cling film, wax, polythene off solarfilm.

better to not spill the glue!!

d

waxed paper, and Vaseline on the places where i may be gluing.

Brett

Hello Griff

You can put a layer of suran-wrap(transparent plastic kitchen wrap) over the
plan.

I always take the plans to a blueprint shop and have a working set made.
Some places won't copy them because of copyright issues. Others will when
you explain what you are doing.

Put cheap old waxed paper over your plans and build on top of it. Nothing
else needed.
