Didn't I read somewhere that butyrate dope can be found in most hardware
stores under a different name?


Reminds of my childhood...

made a few of those gawdawful to make model airplanes made with 10 million
sticks of blasa wood, glue, and tissue paper...

Then there was the process of doping it shrink the tissue paper...

Had a friend.....he didnt use dope on his....he use spray on starch (you know
the kind for ironing your clothes)....seemed to work pretty well....never did
find out if that was some insider secret or not.....asked how he knew and he
said it just seemed like it would work to him!

take care

Blll

PS...no Im NOT saying use spray on starch on a real airplane
