jeden post o potahování v "angličtině", pro kamarády ze zahraničí:
Hi Aaron and Erik! its easier to manage attachments here than in email. So, back to the covering. When you get parts from a laser cutter, they look like this:
First step is grinding(?) outer edges where something will be glued. you can use piece of soft sandpaper glued to epp foam for example. No need for grinding this Tcanaliser but you need to gind leading edge of the wing (where carbon strip will be glued), edges of vertical parts of fuselage which will be glued to horizontal parts of fuselage etc. Check my photos where CF strips are... Dont grind it too much, and be gentle. if something breaks dont worry. Just glue it back together and continue more gently.
You should do the grinding because laser cutter does not make the edge straight but rather U shape. The middle of foam is softer and melts more than the sufrace. And thats bad for strong glue joints...
Second step: put some thin both sided tape on bottom side of parts that will be cutted off. Mark the bottom of the wing, so you wont make two right wings for example.
third step: tape it on the sheet of paper and carefully cut out that part of plane.
you will need the template on paper later for airbrush spraying.
