I was talking to Grant at the field about the foam wings he cut out.  Here are some interesting pictures of a foam wing he repaired a while back.

Hey Grant do you work on commission?  Smiley I have a Summit II pattern plane in need of half a wing and a repair to the other.

I think it was Smitty's at one time and dad bought it off him.

Unfortunately dad put it through a poplar tree  Roll Eyes

I'd love to see it fly again.

HI Ben
I redid my shop a couple of years ago and lost all track of my foam cutting gear.I know some of it is still around but those pictures of the coupe are the last time I cut any foam. If I ever get around to putting things together and make another foam wing I will let you know.
I really miss those days working with foam but lately it has all been arf's.

There is quite a collection of foam and cutters in dad's basement.  He accumulated a lot of stuff over the years  Grin

You are right about the arfs, hard to justify building anything from scratch or a kit anymore.
