I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Back in November this would have been called entrapment.

At that temperature I would be walking around with raisins in my shorts. It's 50* here this morning headed to 80*. We overcooked a turkey last night so a couple of the neighborhood coyotes dined well. This morning when I threw out the carcass, a couple of crows stopped by for breakfast and now the ground is bare again.

What the squirrels don't eat, the deer get. I live in Spencer, Iowa. It was (-) 8 deg. F. when I rolled out this morning.

Probably attracted by the food:-) I love things like this. That's snow!! Where are you?

Here's the whole bunch, ready for painting and installation. BTW; I bought some Testors brush-on acrylic "aluminum", don't bother. I'll be airbrushing them with good old solvent based paint. The nose gear jig will alos serve as it's mounting base when installed in the gear well. And I still need tomount the retraction cylinder on the nose gear llinkage (I forgot to do that until I looked at the image just now). Oh Well.

Must be the day for Landing Gear! Here is the final parts breakdown for the main L.G w/ TIre & Hub, disc brake setup and anti-shimmy sissors.

Whatever you used and did worked darned well, these are very clean panel lines. I just did one yesterday and it meets the 20 foot criteria, but barely. Or maybe my eyes are getting weaker.

Yes ... it's a unique, interesting model.

A Museum piece. Yes !

It's really looking good. Sometimes it is a good idea to just walk away for a while.
JohnG., Comment for image # 3315113 Feb 15 15:05
YES.....VERY nice!!!!

I keep "sanding" my marker tips when panel lining. This seems to keep them clean and flowing.

Looking great. What a unique model!

Started to lay out the panel lines. I bought a cheezy set of Rapiograph-type draughtsman felt tip pens at the local Hobby Lobby. They don't work to well on a glossy surface so I treid wiping the paint job down with denatured alchohol to erase the mistakes, which worked (sort of). The alchohol did act like a weak de-glosser and the next attempt worked better. I think that being it's Friday the 13th today, I shall find something else to do before I muck this thing up really bad.
