I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Skyediamonds1985 Guillows Series 200 - SE5a Build 31-Jan-16 20:24 Views : 280 Making an extra cartridge box for the cockpit floor area. I first cut up a plastic strip approx. the length of the box Skyediamonds1985 Guillows Series 200 - SE5a Build 31-Jan-16 20:10 Views : 330 Trying to hide the lower keel of the fuselage, when viewed from looking into the cockpit This way, structural integrity isn't compromised.

Had to carefully look at the photos. The three turnbuckles on each side are lumped together. Two each side for the rudder and one for the steerable tail skid. I'll add the foot straps Skyediamonds1985 Guillows Series 200 - SE5a Build 28-Jan-16 20:12 Views : 431 Wiring up the rudder bar with my homemade turnbuckles Hangar Aircraft Category Date Preview Skyediamonds1985 Guillows Series 200 - SE5a Parked 28-Jan-16 20:11 Views : 369 One more picture of our home. A very special painting by renown artist. Thank you, DD Skyediamonds1985 Guillows Series 200 - SE5a Parked 28-Jan-16 17:45 Views : 409 This is for Rayl. My first display stand for the PT-17 was slightly modified as a refrigerator. Making use of small space. Skyediamonds1985 Guillows Series 200 - SE5a Build 26-Jan-16 23:41 Views : 414 Here's the (semi) finished turnbuckle being held by hand to help lend itself to the scale desired. I'll be using the open end to wire to the rudder bar. I could also twist the open end to form a closed turnbuckle. I borrowed this idea from one of the many modeling techniques shown on YouTube. Skyediamonds1985 Guillows Series 200 - SE5a Build 26-Jan-16 23:38 Views : 338 Taking one needle nose pliers and carefully clasping it at the end of the small tube, so as to not crush it, I then used the other needle nose pliers to help pull the tube such that the wired loop closed down to a more realistic scale. This is one end of the "turnbuckle." I'll be using the other end to fasten to the rudder bar Skyediamonds1985 Guillows Series 200 - SE5a Build 26-Jan-16 23:27 Views : 342 As in most (if not all) biplanes and older types, there are turnbuckles. Since there are no commercially available turnbuckles in the modeling world needed this scale of 1/20th, I decided to fabricate my own. I simply used very tiny tubes purchased from a local arts and crafts store (Hobby Lobby) and threaded 28 gauge wire through and looped back out the other end. Skyediamonds1985 Guillows Series 200 - SE5a Build 26-Jan-16 23:22 Views : 329 I cut up two pieces of plastic from discarded credit cards and laminated them together to form the rudder bar. I'm now drilling holes for the cables that will l(simulate) lead to the rudder. Page (45 in total) :  <<   28   29   30   31   32  [ 33 ]  34   35   36   37   38   >>  [ < Prev ] [ Next > ]
