SteveM | Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang | Build | 09-Sep-08 15:15 | | Views : 759 | Sometimes I forget that I work a 3 minute walk from a 6 story library with 1.4 million books that will loan them to me for 3 months. No need to mail me the book now DD, I can read this copy and don't have to return it till December 8th. |

SteveM | Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang | Build | 07-Sep-08 01:58 | | Views : 839 | The tail wheel was working just fine till I put on the main wheels and gave it a test roll. This is also the first time I have used a wheel with a metal hub so I was actually able to solder on metal washers to hold it in place. |
SteveM | Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang | Build | 07-Sep-08 01:55 | | Views : 775 | I was going to use small Du-Bro hinges on the tailfeathers till the unthinkable happened, someone set a "free" box outside their office door with a box of perfectly good 3.5" floppies in it. So now I have hinge material that it just the right size. |
