| pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Build | 15-Jun-09 03:46 |  | | Views : 648 | | Makes a really nice tight, bind and slop free hinge. I was quite surprised with the range of movement available. The "Goop" smears clean off easily with a little dope thinner and a Q-tip. |
| pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Build | 15-Jun-09 03:39 |  | | Views : 551 | | Finished product. Covering thickness build-up created a misalignment on leading edge though. |
| pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Build | 15-Jun-09 03:35 |  | | Views : 605 | | Covred tail-feathers and hinged via this method. Top to bottom, bottom to top, and so on. Don't exactly know what this method is called. Quite labor intensive. |

| pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Parked | 07-Jun-09 04:35 |  | | Views : 589 | | Added "Sharpie" separation lines and applied covering to wing. Goning to dust it with flat clear after some touch-ups. Seemed to work pretty good. The marker didn't smear as easily as one would think. |
| pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Build | 07-Jun-09 04:29 |  | | Views : 527 | | Tape it down and color it in. Make sure you grab the correct marker. I didn't, so now it's got single color graphics (one swoop was supposed to be orangier)! |
| pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Build | 07-Jun-09 04:25 |  | | Views : 558 | | Covering the Holiday's wing with Coverlite (similar to Light-span). Comes sealed and tinted. Took some art markers (Prisma), did some swatches, designed the graphics. |

| pfinn | Scratch Built Holiday | Build | 31-May-09 08:26 |  | | Views : 622 | | First rendition of removable motor mount. Rear "Puck" slips under ledge on second bulkhead, front slips in keyway on first bulkhead. Retained by a small rubber band from peg on lower chin (to be added) up over motor mount stick to create a "Weak Link".Blue tape is temp, didn't bring the correct size heat-shrink tubing. |
