These are two of the main L/G doors and the hinges that I fabricated for the Nose Gear doors. The picutres of the real thing showed that the hinges were pretty massive castings which has given me pause for quite some time. The light bulb moment came and I drilled a slightly off-center hole in some Dowel Stock, sawed off thin sections then added the attachment points. rayl Scratch Built Consolidated XF-92A Reference 24-Mar-15 10:55 Views : 512 I believe that I have found my next project. Owned and restored by a chap in Waukegan(?). It is a actual survivor of Pearl Harbor. It flew search missions the afternoon of the event. rayl Scratch Built Consolidated XF-92A Reference 24-Mar-15 10:51 Views : 528 !!!!!!! Cool! rayl Scratch Built Consolidated XF-92A Build 19-Mar-15 16:48 Views : 507 I couldn't resist throwing everything into the hole to see what it looks like. rayl Scratch Built Consolidated XF-92A Build 19-Mar-15 16:47 Views : 507 The pnuematic hoses are soft solder with very fine fuse wire wrapped around it, then CA'd in place. Quite convincing IMHO.

But, like a true fan, I drink to celebrate or to forget. Seat made of Basswood with bits of solder and medical tape for the seat belts. rayl Scratch Built Consolidated XF-92A Reference 17-Mar-15 23:10 Views : 514 As a counterpoint to DD's great pictures of spring in the desert: Lake Okoboji still frozen solid today. rayl Scratch Built Consolidated XF-92A Build 17-Mar-15 16:28 Views : 497 Completed Instrument panel. Warning lights are Styreen rod with Tamyia clear colors. The toggle switches are Styrene tube with fine solder as the bats. Now on to the side consoles and ejection seat. rayl Scratch Built Consolidated XF-92A Build 17-Mar-15 16:26 Views : 433 After some springtime chores, I got back to the cockpit detailing. The instruments have been reduced using Paint (a tedious trial and error process) and teh bezels were fabricated out of styrene. rayl Scratch Built Consolidated XF-92A Reference 17-Mar-15 14:41 Views : 479 Why we love St. Paddy's day!! rayl Scratch Built Consolidated XF-92A Reference 14-Mar-15 10:38 Views : 491 Couldn't find a picture of a B.E. 12 w/rockets, but this will get the point across. Wonder how they lit them off? Page (10 in total) :  1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9   10  [ < Prev ] [ Next > ]
