Description: Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE PLEASE NOTE: This is a Partial Short Kit with a copy of the Original Full Size Plans Short Kit and Full Size Printed Plans for the Carl Goldberg Original Shoestring Stunter Vintage Control Line Stunt Model Plane I borrowed an unmolested original kit and spent enumerable hours duplicating all the original unique parts until I had an exact duplicate of the original kit. I redrew each part in CAD and successfully cut the parts using the laser machine. This listing is for a SHORT KIT which contains all the unique parts that are required to build the C.G. ORIGINAL SHOESTRING STUNTER and a full set of Full Size Printed Plans. You will need to supply the rest of the standard parts to complete the model. Although it is an easy enough control line plane to build this kit is not recommended for the beginner. You should have a solid scratch build skill level and some model airplane fabrication experience. Each kit is cut as ordered and is considered a ‘custom product. Most of the balsa parts are cut with a laser. The one-piece fuselage is machined on a CNC router. It may be made from several sheets glued together prior to machining.
