Pretty simple, just wondering what kind of issues you could run into if you tried to build a wooden aircraft via plans but with aluminum/foam. The aircraft that inspired the question is the Hovey Thing Ding II. It looks like a simple build, but I was wondering if something like this could be built using another material such as aluminum (following construction methods similar to the Affordoplane) and how easy would it be.
