anybody know a site for balsa tips

Post by Zubie »

I'm interested in following up on a steampunkish what if (steam powered airplane), and while I was originally thinking of doing it just as a card model, I'm thinking a tissue and stick version might be better. Unfortunately I've never built any tissue and stick anything, so I was wondering if anyone knows of a site with general tips, particularly shrinking tissue to frames.

Thanks
