Hi Guys,
I just recieved my Frog Redwing in the mail yesterday and have a question about glue.
I was thinking of using thinned Ambroid. I thin it 50-50 with Acetone, then add some DOT to that mixture and that's what I normally use when building my stick planes like the Pennyplane and EZB's. It makes for a much lighter glue and seems to hold okay.
This is a much heavier model (20g. - 28g.)and I was wondering if I should use a PVA glue like Elmers or Titebond instead. I'm trying to keep weight down but I don't want to end up with a plane that's going to fall apart in flight.

Any suggestions??
