        And Pins, lots of Pins. I use pins and masking tape when building with balsa or foam and clamps when building with ply.

          Everyone is a first time builder at the beginning.

              From a first time builder THANKS!

              Using balsa do you guys initially glue with CA and then epoxy and wood glue , or is the wood glue only for plywood , Basicaly Im asking when do you use what glue?
