Hi all its been some time since i have posted so one with the show always enjoyed this aircraft,not think it much of a flyer but have never built floats,something to tinker on. I'm using a card stock material for ribs and formers on this build and also another I will post.

Best wishes on this one Mike. I have some experience with posterboard and cardboard for aircraft construction (see: Joe Ott's Martin Maryland ). MacDonalds (in my area at least) were using a very lightweight thin corrugated cardboard for their burger containers that would be perfect for formers and ribs.

Thanks. Still in progress. Have to rework the nose and replace some stringers.

Ambitious of you.  But looking rather good.  Can we know the size please? 

You have some pretty nice lakes there ………..maybe?
