| SteveM | Guillows Fokker D-VIII | Build | 20-Feb-08 12:29 |  | | Views : 1258 | | I ended up having to remake the mold half that had air bubble issues. After a coat of paint you wouldn't know which was the original. |
| SteveM | Guillows Fokker D-VIII | Build | 19-Feb-08 22:07 |  | | Views : 1184 | | The mold halves. The one on the right came out great but the one on the left has air bubble issues. |
| SteveM | Guillows Fokker D-VIII | Build | 19-Feb-08 18:06 |  | | Views : 1179 | | In about 4 hours (7pm PST) the top half will be cured and I can start casting some resin. Rubber mold cost is about $6, not too bad but don't go crazy with it. |
| SteveM | Guillows Fokker D-VIII | Build | 19-Feb-08 18:04 |  | | Views : 1271 | | Alignment lugs carved out and rubber-to-rubber release agent applied. Don't worry, I'll add this whole process to my web page on duplicating plastic parts. |
| SteveM | Guillows Fokker D-VIII | Build | 19-Feb-08 13:55 |  | | Views : 1188 | | Waiting for the first half of the mold to cure. Do any other Fokkers out there need a cowl besides DD and myself? |

| SteveM | Guillows Fokker D-VIII | Build | 10-Feb-08 17:25 |  | | Views : 1134 | | David, this cowl has more detail, but is it enough? If it is, I can make one for you and one for me, possibly from CR-600. |
| SteveM | Guillows Fokker D-VIII | Build | 10-Feb-08 17:23 |  | | Views : 1150 | | My Fokker D-VIII kit. The instructions are a photocopy which helped scare off the kit collectors. Decals are dated "78830", that means 1978? |
