Also wrapped and soldered the landing gear. My old boy scout lashings came in handy. Tried to work out a pattern do the solder would make the joints look like forgings. |

Jastafuhrer 13 | Dumas Kit #222, Fokker EIII | Build | 19-Jan-14 11:04 | | Views : 670 | This Dumas kit has an interesting locking nose. It's hard to tell but I recut the fuselage sides to give 3 degrees downthrust per the Dumas instructions. I hardened the backside of the firewall and the tongue on the cowl with CA glue so it won't wear with flight. |
