This is a Medium size 16x36x3/4" Pro Building Board from Great Planes.
It is a flat, solid surface to build model airplane sections upon.
FEATURES: Multiple-section, finger-jointed wood construction resists warping,
so modelers can build with greater confidence.
Fine wood grain surface and uniform density accepts T-pins easily.
Parts are T-pinned in place over the plans on top of the board, so
the airplane structure can be built and then glued once the parts
are in position.
This board is designed for planes up to .40 size models.
INCLUDES: One Medium size 16x36x3/4" Pro Building Board
REQUIRES: Nothing, it is sanded smooth and ready to use.
SPECS: Length: 36" (913mm)
Width: 16" (406mm)
Thickness: 3/4" (19mm)
COMMENTS: To prevent warpage, this board must be allowed to stabilize in
moisture content whenever it is moved to the hot outdoors from an
air conditioned indoor area. This can be done by removing the
packaging and standing the board on end for a day or two allowing
air to contact both sides evenly. Warping can occur when placing
one end against a workbench or face down on a table. The slight
warping will go away in time as the entire board reaches the same
moisture level. When one side has more moisture content it will be
longer thus causing bowing usually in the cross grain direction.
Once both sides reach the same moisture level, the board will again
be flat.
COMMENTS: Use the Pin Driver T-Pin Tool (GPMR8050) to push-in or pull-out the
T-pins easily. This tool helps reduce finger fatigue that T-pins
sometimes cause.
