Hello to everyone.
I have plans for Brave Borderer by Ken Hards, had them about 50 years.
The plans make an MTB of 36 inches, however I want to reduce the size to 18 inches. I have a scanner so scanning the plans and reducing size isn't an issue. the problem is sizing the timber.
The keel and bulkheads are from 3/16 ply, the inwales and chines from 3/8 balsa.
Should these sizes be reduced, the model would be for display only.
I used to design, build and fly control line aircraft so am used to working with balsa, all be it 50+ years ago.
Any help much appreciated.
