Builders,
After a long period of thought and personal analysis I've come to the conclusion of
scratch-building versus kit building the 701. Is someone kind enough to sell or lend me there
form blocks once I get the materials on deck? Also, I came across someone in the past that has
made flanging dies for purchase specific to Zenith type airplanes does anyone have the link?

Art, personally, I would be hesitant to use someone
elses forming blocks. In an earlier post you
mentioned wanting to maintain an above average level
of perfection on your project. A good place to start
this level of perfection is to build your own forming
blocks. That way you will be sure that each part is
formed according to plans.

It should only take a weekend and is actually kind of
enjoyable. I used it as a primer for starting the
project.

Just my two cents, best of luck with your project.
