Hi,
In a recent article of the build- up of a kit, the author mentioned using a jig for setting the dihedral and stagger of the wings. He said that it was very useful "I can't get along without it ". By the sound of it, this jig did not seem to be homemade.
Does anyone know of a commercial product that fits this description ? It sounds like a handy thing to have.
Thank you, willy

Try the WWI Modelers Page. *There are several mentions about the various jigs that the modelers uses there. Its a great place to see what other modelers are doing.
