The NASM gift shop would be a great placement for your book Ron and
well deserved.

Don,

About the only thing that I can offer that isn't in Ron's book is how
to hold ribs as you glue them up.

Take a look at this as well, for applying thin CA.

I cut my indoor teeth with the Parlor Mites as well and while a
little frustrating initially I found them very enjoyable.

Covering adhesive? I used 3M-77 to cover my early indoor models. I
spray a healthy blast into the air, then pass the structure through
the resulting fog. The longer you wait to wave the structure, the
lighter the glue will be as the heavy blobs fall out of the sky
first. Don't do this in your living room.

Actually, back up a step or two and explore my site,
http://www.gryffinaero.com. There is a fair amount there based on my
time flying sport FF models. While not pure indoor duration, there is
some applicable content and a few tips to be gleaned along the way.
