Title: Video of how to make Wing jig pieces
Post by: steven yampolsky on March 04, 2013, 11:29:45 AM

A while back some folk asked me to do a video on how to make simple wing jig pieces. My apologies for making some of the videos longer than 5 minutes(video 1 and 5 are 7 and 11 minutes long). I am still learning how video edit... Enjoy

Recently, I was introduced to a concept of "Pay it forward". Wikipedia defines it as follows:

"Pay it forward" is asking the beneficiary of a good deed to "repay" it to others instead of to the original benefactor.

What struck me was how close it hits home when it comes to the CL community. Over the years I have had so many individuals help me out with NO expectation of repayment of favors. I asked some of them why do they help someone they don't know very well. They ALL answered by telling me stories about other modelers that helped them in the first place and that this is just what you are expected to do: you help each other without expecting anything in return.

Our community survived and flourished for years due to the culture of mutual help, the culture of "Pay it forward". I just hope that these videos help others in my community.

Very nice & helpful videos
If I may make a small suggestion that when cutting two pieces for identical cuts
add a piece of masking tape at the end (last end to be cut) to help from any shifting,
slipping or mis-alignment of the material.

Just food for thought.

Great idea Walter. So simple, yet makes things easier. Why didn't I think of that!? Thank you!

Another Thank You to Dick Pacini. Dick has pointed me to a good resource:

So for me, making this video's is actually a benefit: I learned not one but TWO good tips!
