I'm wondering if I should attach the tailfeathers before priming |

I guess there is no such thing as a minor "touch-ups" with micro fill, fixed two small spots, then I fixed two more small spots and the next thing you know, the entire fuselage was covered. |

Looking good, your on your way to a nicely detailed cockpit, keep up the good work. |

2nd try at the instrument panel. |

Looks like your on the right track. You're best bet is to scratch build the cockpit details. If you search the net you may find some cockpit pictures that you can work off of. If you look in my hanger their is an example of a seat that I built from a simple paper pattern tranfered to 1/16 thick balsa, its made from two peices, a bottom, and a back and sides that wrap adound the bottom. Of course you can add as much or as little detail as you like. I hope this helps. |

Why wait 6 weeks you could have made them yourself! |

I am making a dashboard out of balsa and will cut out gauges copied from a decal sheet. I am looking for ideas on what to do for a seat and cockpit interior |

Looking very nice. Who did you order the wheels from? They will add a nice touch to the detail. |

Waited over 6 weeks for these "special ordered" spoked wheels. Had to make up a new axle shaft to accommodate the 1/32th inside diameter hub size. |

Everything is looking great! Well done prop. A few painted lines and would look just like the original laminated ones. |

Sweet prop. I made one from walnut for my camel. Try a small drum sander on a drill the next time. It cut my carving time to only 2 hrs! |

Nice prop job? I can see that you've been very busy today. |
