General Building Information
The F9F-6 Cougar can be built by a person with building skills. It is designed for someone who has
built a low wing warbird. No unusual building techniques are required, although more difficult areas
are explained in detail where necessary. Certain steps in the building process must be followed as
depicted, or you might find yourself digging back into the structure to redo something. These areas are
outlined when necessary. Occasionally hints will be included at certain building steps. These are not
required for completion, rather they are tips intended to ease a particular process. The cnc router does
cut through the wood, As a result of this, occasionally there will be fraying on the surface of the wood.
This is normal, and is only a surface problem and does not affect the wood in any other way. Similarly,
the cnc settings are optimized for wood thickness averages, so occasionally, due to variations even in
individual sheets, some areas might not cut through completely. Simply use care in cutting the parts
from the sheets; most of the time, the parts will break out of the sheets!
Hardware and a fan unit are not included in the kit. There are so many choices for quality hardware
that these choices are left to the individual preferences of the builder, rather than include something
in the kit that you’ll probably throw away anyway.
