BMS-Mini Bomarc

[Pantherjon]

Can anyone who has the BMS kit tell me the thickness of the "shaped balsa" (Part O on the original instructions-- the top part of the tunnel) is? I had ordered part from Semroc to build a Mini-Bomarc before BMS came out with their kit.

Thanks,

It is 1/8"..Appears to be a 1/4" dowel split in half..it sits on top of two pieces of 1/8" basswood to fill the area between the wings..

In the BSM kit part O is two pieces glued together. The first is 3/16 dia dowel cut in half. The second is a 1/16 basswood strip.
