I had to vote all wood since I have yet to build any kits that were not all wood.

All wood, it's not building in my opinion to have someone else complete most of the work. JMO.

Hi Mike,

All wood apart from ready made cowls, although the Ziroli kit I bought off ebay has some G/F lumps including two 5' pieces that look like a cross between a downpipe and a shark.

                                               Dave.

My only "built from plans" model is all wood, but I'm open to other materials and methods. If a nice kit of a subject I was interested in came in f/g, or foam, or any combo thereof, I'd be willing to give it a go. The finished result is what we're about, after all.

Brad.
