Fantastic looking box of Balsa. All nicely labled and ready to go. Hours saved in sorting balsa. The parts list makes ordering a simple task than searching endlessly on multiple sites.
Contact with Lee was frequent and he kept me up to date. Especially when I received my kit he checked up to ensure everything was in order. Customer service A1.
