Broken PT 19 wing repair with Dryer sheet. LOL
I see Roddie on here using household things to be usefull in this hobby, So when I received a PT 19 in the mail with a broken wing right down the middle I started thinking how I could fix it.I cut a dryer sheet in 2 inch strips and laminated it with plastic cement to both sides and let it cure for 2 days.Put it on the airplane and I have another plane ready for flight. its pretty strong and you can't really see it because its under the fuse.

Dryer-sheets.. wow.. I wonder if they could be used for covering open framework??? They're woven... and very lightweight. I wonder if the material will shrink if doped? If I start saving them after doing the laundry.. my wife will surely have me committed..
