Hi everyone, I'm new here but have already looked at all of the wonderful information on all the threads here.

I have a question regarding building wood parts over a long period of time. If i start building parts, say wing ribs, and building them one at a time it might take along time before the entire structure is done and varnished. Will the unvarnished parts, i.e. ribs, spars, etc. warp or distort over time. How can they be perserved without varnishing. They cannot be varnished until all of the structured is glued, correct?:D

BTW - i am planning on building a VJ-22 Amphibian. Is anyone out done or doing the same?
