I decided to build a 3in upscale Vagabond a while back, but wanted to build a kit version first. I got that done, so today I started on the upscale. I was planning on using 3/16" birch plywood that I got from BalsaUSA for the fins, but it's crap. I decided to use some 1/4" plywood that I got from Michael's instead. The Michael's plywood was much flatter and much cheaper.
The multiplication factor for the upscale is 1.83x, but boy does the fin template look huge! I got the plywood blanks cut and the pattern marked.
