I have to agree.  The only time I've heard of a problem with fiberglass is chopped fiberglass being inhaled.  No problem with cloth.   John ________________________________ From: Paul <paul@...> To: BugHLG@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, February 28, 2012 3:14 PM Subject: [BugHLG] Re: Question about fiberglass cloth and control horn template   What is so dangerous about fiberglass cloth? Seems pretty benign to me compared to carbon and the allergies that some develop to balsa dust, ca and epoxy.

Hi. I am building a Bug Hlg and come across some questions. Hope some of you have answers 1) Does anyone try to use other things as fiberglass cloth substitution for Bug building. ? Fiberglass is quite dangerous, as far as I know. I would like to try other save material 2) I cannot find control horn template from pdf plan I downloaded from this group. So what is the degree between control horn and elevator. Thanks. Siwat
