This is the first video in a series in which I will build the Balsa Workbench Simpleton 40 biplane kit.  This is a full kit including plan, hardware, and all wood parts required to finish the plane.  Kit instruction manual is posted online at https://www.balsaworkbench.com/?page_...

The Simpleton kit is intended for competent fliers who want to try building a balsa plane.  It's very easy to build, hence the name, and it's a lot of fun to fly.  

In this video I build the fuselage from start to finish.  In future videos I will build the wings and the tail, and then I'll attach the landing gear and set up the plane for flight.
