| Well, I seem to have put the last 3 pictures in the wrong place, so we'll see, but thanks for the vote of confidence.I got the lower fuselage block done yesterday. You're right. Very interesting. |

| I have no doubt your effort will exceed my humble result...again lol
If I recall correctly, once the adhesive on the exterior of the intake seam was dry I wrapped the thing with rubber bands and went Banzai with the glue on the inside seams. If you have zap kicker or similar you can lay two or three coats of adhesive along those seams and it gives you leeway when sanding and smoothing the exterior. |

| Heywoood. Thanks for that link. Hope mine turns out that well. |

| I used cya medium adhesive inside and out along the seam.
A bit trickier was shaping the block that forms the lower forward fuselage that the intake rests on. Also the blocks that form the wing root - specifically at the trailing edges.
A terrific model to shape and put together

| I think it's just glued together. I don't remember any problem. |

| Count yourself lucky that you have a Calico that likes anyone. They are usually the Dobermans of the cat world. |

| maybe they should have kept the 20 mm's for the later models or at least a pair of them. |
| Don C, Comment for image # 39689 | 16 Dec 17 11:03 |
| 20mm Hispano cannon. Only used for a couple of models. Then they went to the 50 cal. mg. |
