| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 25-Apr-17 22:14 |  | | Views : 281 | | Heywood - this is what I meant when I asked about 3D Isometric (iso) computer drawn pics on the plan. I think just the more recent releases by Dumas have these - I find them very handy! - 18" Spad 7 |
| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 24-Apr-17 12:01 |  | | Views : 254 | | I applied 3 coats of Krylon Clear Gloss rattle can spray in my makeshift cardboard box spray booth in the bathroom that has a ceiling fan - just close the door! |
| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 24-Apr-17 11:56 |  | | Views : 285 | | The tissue did dry drum tight. |
| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 24-Apr-17 11:55 |  | | Views : 269 | | This wet tissue was spray misted with water - instead of pure atomized spray, there were small droplets of water on the tissue, which do leave a round water mark - I need a new spray atomizer from Dollarama. |
| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 24-Apr-17 11:51 |  | | Views : 265 | | Tissue is glued on - one red and one black. |
| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 24-Apr-17 11:49 |  | | Views : 261 | | I made two jigs for the repair tissue, built extra large, just in case ... |

| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 23-Apr-17 18:38 |  | | Views : 264 | | But a great day to be in the park all day with "Trapper". |
| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 23-Apr-17 18:35 |  | | Views : 284 | | It only got 10 feet off the ground with one 12" loop of 1/8" rubber. I had three 10 second perfect flights downwind on a very slight breeze, into perfect soft landings on long thick grass - then I wound the prop too many times ... busted the rubber - the nose block hanging and piled up rubber in rear fuse and tissue damage in rear fuse. |
| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 23-Apr-17 18:29 |  | | Views : 269 | | mlriley - you inspired me to put in new rubber, a downthrust angled balsa plate on the front, and a metal "rubber hook" for the prop hook to rubber connection, into my 22" Sig Cabinaire. It was still balanced. |
| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 22-Apr-17 22:12 |  | | Views : 274 | | The other side of the planks is painted Bronze Metallic. There are three coats of acrylic brush on paint on each side of eight planks = 48 sides were painted. |
| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 22-Apr-17 22:08 |  | | Views : 260 | | Planks are blocked up securely and painted on one side with Burnt Sienna Brown Gloss. |
| LASTWOODSMAN | Herr Engineering HRR 105, Fokker D-7 | Parked | 22-Apr-17 21:57 |  | | Views : 320 | | I cut out eight balsa prop lamination planks - 10" X 1 1/2" X 1/16" - to paint up for wood grain, and then glue them stacked on top of each other to make a balsa prop block to carve the Axial prop for the 200 HP BMW engine. |
