These fuselage pieces are the ones I cut. Jastafuhrer 13 Dumas Kit #222, Fokker EIII Build 19-Jan-14 10:56 Views : 399 Stabilizer and rudder. The extra is laminated like pfinn did on his. I'm actual building two Eindeckers. One is almost straight from the kit. The other it's scratchbuilt in more of a scale display style. They piece in the middle is the bent piece under the cowl. Jastafuhrer 13 Dumas Kit #222, Fokker EIII Build 19-Jan-14 10:46 Views : 423 Another view of the cowl and fuselage front. Jastafuhrer 13 Dumas Kit #222, Fokker EIII Build 19-Jan-14 10:44 Views : 465 Here you can see that I've shaped the fairings behind the cowl. The picture quality isn't the greatest because it's s camera phone but you can see that I veneered the dash panel with 1/32 then sanded it down to ten thousandths before installing. I didn't want to see the end of the top stringers on the finished model. I have also sanded down all the burnt edges from the laser cuts for the same reason. It also trued up the edges because it appears the laser cuts with a slight angle. Jastafuhrer 13 Dumas Kit #222, Fokker EIII Build 19-Jan-14 10:38 Views : 404 Cowl is fitted to the fuselage. Area between is also filled with a formed piece instead of bits. the bend radius is the same as the cowl so it was easy. Jastafuhrer 13 Dumas Kit #222, Fokker EIII Build 19-Jan-14 10:34 Views : 375 Cowl strip ids dry and ready to trim and glue Hangar Aircraft Category Date Preview Jastafuhrer 13 Dumas Kit #222, Fokker EIII Build 19-Jan-14 10:30 Views : 412 The kit instructions have the cowling filed in with bits of 1/8 x 1/16. I decided to do it in one piece. This is a wooden block from my son's toy chest that has almost the exact radius required. The card stock is a guide to keep the balsa s square to the form. I put the piece in a bowl of water in microwave to stream it. Jastafuhrer 13 Dumas Kit #222, Fokker EIII Build 19-Jan-14 10:24 Views : 407 Fuselage is coming along. I've added cross bracing in the bays behind the cockpit top and bottom. Might add a little weight but at least it's up near the front. Jastafuhrer 13 Dumas Kit #222, Fokker EIII Build 19-Jan-14 10:21 Views : 385 Working on the stabilizer. Jastafuhrer 13 Guillows Series 500 - BF 109 Parked 18-Jan-14 22:19 Views : 634 The paint ids Tamay Jastafuhrer 13 Guillows Series 500 - BF 109 Parked 18-Jan-14 11:35 Views : 625 First build. Decals wouldn't stick well on flat paint. I plan on getting some more colors and painting ask the markings. I realize the carb air scoop is on the wrong side. Didn't realize the dotted lines in the plan meant hidden view. Weight is 36g now but still needs balanced. Will probably fly like a brick. I learned a lot and had fun building it though.
