Rick,
Try using blue foam, it works better than wire mesh. You can sand and shape
the blue foam and it is more stable. You will have to make a parting line so
you can remove the finish part from the fuselage. After you get the part off
dump gasoline on the inside to melt the foam. I have made several race car
hoods and noses with this method. If you are just making one part you will
have to sand and finish the outside. If not you use this part as the plug to
make your mold.

That weather forcast for Phoenix will be the same through September. Only hotter
during July and August. Only in the 90s here in (now) sunny Sacramento.

This would be a good one for Weaver, it has a motor mount for a Mazda Rotary.
