Hey gang,
The T-Square was always one of my favorite planes. Actually, I started building one about 50 years ago, and never finished it. It's all done and
covered with black silk (of all things), and several brushed coats of clear, and it looks fine today.
When Walter Umland offered a new kit of the T-Square, I saw an opportunity to relieve some guilt, and complete a plane that I started and
never finished.
So here is the results. The covering and trim is all Ultracote, except for the pin strips, which are vinyl tape. The motor will be a Fox 35, but not
the usual Fox 35. This one is an ABC Fox 35 made by Randy Smith. All the extra motor mount holes are to allow me to change mounting of the
motor if needed for balancing reasons.
The angled blue checkers look like a fairly simple and straight forward trim job. But it wasn't. Laying out the checker pattern and then placing it
in the proper position on the wing, was a very frustrating job.
By the way, Walter's kit was superb, as was expected.
Cheers.
Warren Wagner
