solutions:
There are many possible options of what my finalised kit could contain. The purpose of laying out the table below is to consider all of the possibilities and to choose the most effective kit.

I have decided to present the kit in a bucket. It will contain a detailed written method as well as some visual instructions. This will increase the clarity of instructions. The balsa wood supplied will be a mixture of pre cut but I will allow the student to cut out some pieces of their own. I will pre cut the fuselage as it is very thick and long but I will stencil the wings and stabilizers onto the balsa wood. This way, the student can cut the pieces with ease. I will also supply sand paper.
