Don C | Todays Hobbies F-14a Tomcat | Build | 01-Sep-18 18:15 | | Views : 275 | Some strange angles on this part. |
Don C | Todays Hobbies F-14a Tomcat | Build | 01-Sep-18 18:13 | | Views : 358 | That seems to have worked OK. Now trying to work the shape from those 3 stringers I was complaining about. |
Don C | Todays Hobbies F-14a Tomcat | Build | 28-Aug-18 14:49 | | Views : 330 | The stringers from the kit are fairly hard. I cut some from a sheet. (Love that stripper, Ray). Learned this method from one of DD's builds. Much easier to follow the curves this way. |
Don C | Todays Hobbies F-14a Tomcat | Build | 28-Aug-18 14:42 | | Views : 304 | Those first three stringers on each side are really interesting. Finally remembered to wet them and they bent better. Broke 2 first. |

Don C | Todays Hobbies F-14a Tomcat | Reference | 19-Aug-18 16:08 | | Views : 380 | Temperature is fine, but this is getting hard on the lungs. We are at the top of the road in the middle of the picture. |
Don C | Todays Hobbies F-14a Tomcat | Build | 19-Aug-18 16:02 | | Views : 307 | Planking the fuselage instead of stringers and infilling. A little faster, but I'll need a lot of sandpaper. |
Don C | Todays Hobbies F-14a Tomcat | Build | 16-Aug-18 15:15 | | Views : 301 | OK. Here's the piece in the general position. Next the instruction diagram. |
Don C | Todays Hobbies F-14a Tomcat | Build | 15-Aug-18 16:30 | | Views : 299 | Thanks to a gift from David Duckett, this is the next project. Thanks, DD. Good thing there are a couple of other ones to study. Tough acts to follow. |
