I have been using your vids to convert my supercub to have ailerons, thanks for taking the time to do this.....you make it look so easy. I have one question though, I'm wondering what you used to make the hot knife blade? Thanks again and your sc's turned out beautifully!!

I would like to know what type of epoxy you use? is it just regular stuuf from a hardware store?

[jbw9999]

...which is mainly alcohol. A bottle of rubbing alcohol is a fraction of the price of hand sanitizer.

Or instead of epoxy, use Sumo glue, which is more flexable, white, doesn't yellow like epoxy, much lighter weight, doesn't have to be mixed, fills gaps well, and doesn't stink!

hand sanaitizer can get exopy off well too
