Any of you ever built control line models carved from balsa blocks? I
have some plans for the plane from the 1948 MI mag.

Thanks, Ted.

Man, I haven't done that in 50 years myself. Mine always came out
looking like something different than the plan but heck I was only 7
years old with a dull knife so I wouldn't get cut. Sandpaper? What
was that? Anyway it was really fun.
