Pat,I'm currently working on the tail section with the horiz. stab completed. Allthe capstrips in the tail are 3/16" thk. X 1/2" wide. As for # of plies, if youhave a good marine or aircraft grade 1/8" thk. plywood (I'm using marine gradeOkume) that should work fine. Typically I believe they're 3 ply. Many peopleare using aircraft grade birch or mahogony plywood. Any of these shouldbe fine.Where are you located?Tom BrantBrooklyn Park, MN ----- Original Message -----
