    This is a Large size 16x48x3/4" Pro Building Board from Great Planes.
      It is a flat, solid surface to build model airplane sections upon.

FEATURES: Multiple-section, finger-jointed wood construction resists warping,
            so modelers can build with greater confidence.
          Fine wood grain surface and uniform density accepts T-pins easily.
            Parts are T-pinned in place over the plans on top of the board, so
            the airplane structure can be built and then glued once the parts
            are in position.
          This board is designed for large assembly projects.

INCLUDES: One Large size 16x48x3/4" Pro Building Board

REQUIRES: Nothing. It is sanded smooth and ready to use.

SPECS:    Length:     48" (1218mm)
          Width:      16" (406mm)
          Thickness: 3/4" (19mm)
COMMENTS: To prevent this board from warping, it must be allowed to stabilize
            in moisture content whenever it is moved to the hot outdoors from
            an air conditioned indoor area. This can be done be removing the
            packaging and standing the board on end for a day or two allowing
            air to contact both sides evenly. Warping can occur when placing
            one end against a workbench or face down on a table. The slight
            warping will go away in time as the entire board reaches the same
            moisture level. When one side has more moisture content it will be
            longer thus causing bowing usually in the cross grain direction.
            Once both sides reach the same moisture level, the board will again
            be flat.

          Use the Pin Driver T-Pin Tool (GPMR8050) to push-in or pull-out the
            T-pins easily.  This tool helps reduce finger fatigue that T-pins
            sometimes cause.
