John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 11-Nov-07 18:07 Views : 771 Everything is holding together with friction and rubber bands....all seems to fit. This should be wrapped by Friday! John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 10-Nov-07 12:51 Views : 822 This rubber band and string clamp seems to do the job. While the White glue dries I will fabricate aileron cranks. John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 10-Nov-07 12:49 Views : 841 I never realize how big the plane will be until it starts to come together. I was perplexed as to how to clamp the wing tips. John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 10-Nov-07 12:12 Views : 882 I laminated 4, 1/2 inch balsa bolcks for the W tips. I do not trust myself with a knife so I quickly shaped them on a small belt sander. Now I will glue them to the wing, final shaping by hand. John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 09-Nov-07 22:05 Views : 792 First coat of primer on the top! Hangar Aircraft Category Date Preview John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 09-Nov-07 22:03 Views : 822 Ailerons installed first coat of primer on bottom wing. John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 09-Nov-07 22:01 Views : 963 The wing first fill and sanding. John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Parked 05-Nov-07 22:06 Views : 989 Thanks DD for the advice about the large wing decals. Your thought never crossed my mind. Off to the hills of PA for 4 days to try and decrease the turkey population. The wing gets covered upon return. John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 05-Nov-07 22:04 Views : 1021 Seems like the wing will fit. Like DD I must make wooden end caps for the wing....Guillows plastic...again! John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 05-Nov-07 22:02 Views : 963 The Spirit has a wing. A few extra stingers and a large stringer just forward of the aileron spaces. I could not get 1/32 bass wide enough to cover in one piece so I had to adjust the stringers to hold a tight seam. John M Oshust Guillows Series 800 - Spirit of St Louis Build 05-Nov-07 21:59 Views : 800 These a floral arranging pins. They are a bit long but cut easily to fit your building board. You can purchase them at a craft shop. I found them useful in building the Spirit wing. Page (25 in total) :  <<   8   9   10   11   12  [ 13 ]  14   15   16   17   18   >>  [ < Prev ] [ Next > ]
