RC Model X1 Bill of Materials

LUMBER: Do NOT purchase any lumber until you read this section. Do NOT purchase any NET SIZED material. All wood is re-sawn from standard lumberyard 1" stock, usually finishing to about 3/4". Almost any good quality lumber free of knots can be used. The prototype used mahogany (mahog.) for exposed trim and pine and fir for painted parts. Check all material listings to the work prior to purchasing materials.
