1 down three to go. Thanks poppy for your dummy cylinder idea, I think it works great and yep, saves a lot of time. |
| stirling, Image # 16585 | 25 Feb 10 21:07 |
Looks the part I think. |

| A suggestion. Paint the balsa back plate to look like cylinders, saves a lot of time and on a model of this size no one will see the difference. |

| Thanks poppy you are one of the inspirations for this. As I said I still have the back seven to make and then all the little niceties to make it look somewhat real. Tis a bugger that this is a four engined beast, only 49 cylinders to make. If this site dosen't stop giving me ideas I may never finish this bird!!! |

| WOW! Another way to do engines. Super! |

Got bored with the stabiliser so I thought I would try something I have never done before. Still have the back row to complete. |

| Call it a labour of love. At least that's what I keep telling myself!! |

| Aren't you sick of gluing in little pieces of balsa yet !!! Only a thousand to go. |

Filling stabiliser. |

| Yep it is a Towner plan which I got from Pete Williams of Cardiff. I had the original blown up to this size. Scale is 1/23 and a wing span of 116cm. As for the winding of four props at the same time Creosotewind, your guess is as good as mine. I should imagine that it would be quite fiddly to fly under rubber. |

| This will be a cool build. What scale/wingspan? I see how the rubber is set at an angle. How do you wind four propellers and release them at the same time? |

| Is this plan by Harold J. Towner from the U.K.? I think I have the same one ... The rubber powering is quite unique ... |

| Jeez, that'll keep you busy !! |

| Question to Poppy if I may. How did you make the ammo belt for the twin 30's on your Guillows Series 1000 - SBD3 Dauntless? |
| stirling, Image # 15998 | 20 Jan 10 19:48 |
THE FORGOTTEN BOMBER. Just having a look at my name sake and my next project. I put the lib in to show the scale. Have been wanting to build one of these for a while as we have family history with this bird during WW2. Still deciding weather or not to RC this one. Can't wait!!! |

| Thanks guys. I think I'll have to start wearing my glasses when building things this small. It looked really smooth to the naked eye before I airbrushed.
Question to you poppy if I may, I was looking at your Guillows Series 1000 - SBD3 Dauntless and was wondering how you made the ammo belt on the twin 30's? |
