I am going to start a build with the plans I got on this forum of the
wildthing, I see that there is two sets of stringers on the plans, one
set is 5" all the way back to transom, other set is split at radio box
for a biger radio box. Witch set is the best to use? and what type of
glue is best to use.

Thank you

It's personal preference. The original plans have the wider stringers in
the rear and a built in radio box. That way you can put the rudder servo
farther to the right and pull on the rudder in a right turn rather than
pushing on it and having the linkage possibly flex. Obviously I like
the built in radio box since I drew the plans, but most people seem to
like the stringers in one piece all the way to the transom and a
separate raio box. It's up to you. Doug

Thank you Doug, Now I know why there are two set of stringers, I think I
am going to go with the builded in radio box. I am going to start
building soon, I picked up some wood and 30 min epoxy today, I just
need to find the right tools so I can start cutting.
