| I'm working on a West Wings Hawker Tempest, but I don't see this as a kit I can select to add to my hanger. Does anyone know how to get a new kit added to the list? |

| Well finally have all nine of the cylinders for the P-26 glued up. I added the "headers" then painted everything black. I think I am going with the silver highlights for the cylinders. Now to get a good crankcase cut so I can start the assembly. |

| The unpainted push rods for the engine of the P-26. The rods are 3/32" brass rods and the connectors at each end are heat shrink tubing. The longer tubing go to the top and the shorter goes to the bottom of the push rods. The top is made from 5/64" heat shrink tubing that has been shrunk and is tight and cannot be moved. The bottom is made from 3/32" heat shrink tubing that was shrunk and then cut into small sections. Because it is 1/64" larger than the top tubing it can be slid on and off the brass rod. I will glue the top to the engine header and after it dries slide the bottom piece into place and glue. At the scale I am working that little play allows for a tight fit. I will touch up the paint after the glue dries. |
