I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

and aa few layers of spackle.

Sanding helps.

Wish I could infill like that! Very nice!

...getting there Don!

Sometimes it takes 3 or 4 applications to level it.
Anders, Comment for image # 4433508 Dec 23 14:32
Oh yeah "sparkel" we say. I have had bad luck using fillers. Hobbico ones and locally bought ones. Always gives porous and bad results. Results tend to point against none at all.

Nope. Not even a canopy.
bobgood, Comment for image # 4434106 Dec 23 19:35
I like the idea of that Don -nice.
Don C, Comment for image # 4434105 Dec 23 23:21
If you try this,ask for hints.

1/64 birch plywood sheeting. Easier than infilling.

For Anders - this is the spackle I use.

Don, good job, looks like fun! Definitely my kind of build. Does the Comet kit have any plastic that you have to deal with?
Don C, Comment for image # 4433501 Dec 23 21:38
Sand the airfoil before filler.
Don C, Comment for image # 4433501 Dec 23 21:36
Spackle = for plasterboard.
Anders, Comment for image # 4433501 Dec 23 18:05
So that is infill between stringers and then putty and after that airfoil? What kind of filler do you use?
bobgood, Comment for image # 4433601 Dec 23 15:37
Wow! That is very cool.....
Don C, Image # 4433601 Dec 23 12:34

Instead of using the kit, I copied everything andleft the kit intact.
Don C, Image # 4433501 Dec 23 12:31

Instead of Comets flat tail surfaces I filled in with 1/4 " balsa and sanded to a n airfoil.

Yesterday-First coat of sandable prime after 3 coats of spackle.
