The feeling of happiness when you successfully get a self-built model into the air is priceless. To experience this, you don't have to be an expert or have professional tooling. Wolfgang Braun shows in twenty chapters how you can achieve impressive results in a short time with simple tools. It is as much about tailor-made tools for model making as it is about special manufacturing methods. This book wants to encourage you to build your next model aircraft yourself. So, get to the plan, get set, go!
