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

Plastic tubing works too.

Nice job! I agree with Brian. small dowels will work. I've become quite fond of bamboo skewers too. You can get a lot of different sizes, and they are really tough. Just drill the right size hole in the leading edge, insert and glue. Sand to get just the right length. Done!

I think I just painted them, but I would use small dowels coming out of the front of the wing.

I am finishing up my P51. Would you mind telling me what you used for the machine guns?

Will do. Thanks.

i would get 4 or 5. I airbrush my planes so I don't know what brushing it would do. it's good to have a little left over. try that though.

Follwup question on Model Masters paint. I ordered 2 .5 fl oz bottles of the aluminum. Will that be enough or should I order more now? I am assuming 2-3 coats. I will be brushing,not spraying.

No luck. Were I to do this again I would cut out the cowl and dry fit just after assembling the first former. It is very close but won't slide over. I will have to use a tiny bit of putty to hide the gap 8-(

i use testors cement for pastic models, the red tube, it will seal around the cowl and the front of the former. it might expand a little to fit on the former.

I am at the stage of trying to fit the nose cowl on my tissued and doped P51 fuselage. VERY tight fit. Do have any suggestions for me?

I am building the P51. What silver paint did you use on yours?

it's the p-51 in action squadron signal. maybe the second one in the p-51 action series.
