Ambroid not good enough for you? Never tried CA on balsa. You should

50 years ago or so I used Ambroid, jap tissue, and dope. If nothing else
it was good for a buzz. When I revisited R/C aircraft in the '80s it was
CA and iron-on MonoKote. I already have too many projects but if I got
into again I'd go retro although I've heard Ambroid is almost extinct.
Do you know its history?

Never knew that.

In the 70s I worked for the sister company of Sullivan Products (Pylon
Brand) so I was able to get most anything for RC free or 50% off from
distributors. Fun hobby.
