These are 1/24 scale. I could bump up the blades for your size hubs if you like. I contacted DD and he said he was fine with it. But if you'd like some David Duckett originals, I Totally understand that too. Phil |

| pfinn | Shortys Basement BV-215 | Reference | 07-Nov-09 18:05 |  | | Views : 957 | | Well, JohnG, beat you to it! These are in the hands of JohnG. Eight molds for this particular set plus the turned aluminum spinner parts. Took a little while with three hours here and there and a couple of good work days, but they're finished. The .045 dia. wire and aluminum shafts are inmolded as well as the wheel bearings that slip/press into the wheels. I used some pigment in the prop blades and hubs but as the resin cures white, the blades are not quite black, but are a good base for a black paintjob. |
