After laying all the sectors out, I made the cylinder bases by slicing them off on my lathe after using the drum sander to match the radius of tht crankcase. rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Build 20-Nov-16 11:37 Views : 483 First attempt at making the crankcase: Not happy. I'm not good at carving. rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Build 19-Nov-16 10:53 Views : 557 All nine cylinders done. I think that this going to get complicated before it's over. I had purchased a Williams Bros. 1/12 scale radial, but it just looked to big hanging out there, even though the OL-8 is aprox 1/14 scale. rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Build 19-Nov-16 10:49 Views : 470 Sorry about the spelling on the last post. This are (is)? the assembly of the aforementioned discs into the cylinder for the Wasp Radial on the front of the OL-8. rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Build 19-Nov-16 10:46 Views : 471 Well, we had our first taste od snow yesterday, so building season is officially open, These are about a zillion 0,010 plastic discs of diffenerent sizes that I have turned down on my little lathe. Hangar Aircraft Category Date Preview rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Reference 07-Oct-16 16:49 Views : 582 Bottom side shows that it is a P-38 and has a 1942 date molded into it. Always heard of these critters but have never seen one before. Another "treasure" for my daughter to unload when I'm on the wrong side of the turf. rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Reference 07-Oct-16 16:47 Views : 655 Picked up this cute little WWII molded rubber ID model at a Flea Market for $2.00. It has a wingspan of 8 1/2", which makes it roughly 1/144 scale. rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Reference 28-Jul-16 08:40 Views : 721 RTD89: Like This? rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Parked 08-Jun-16 07:33 Views : 745 the OL-8 project is shelved for a while: 6 windows done and only 24 left. I'll be checking in. Have a fun summer!!! rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Reference 19-May-16 19:48 Views : 687 The guys at the VA are in the minor leagues when it comes to OCD (or being anal retentive): The picture is from Jim Landoni of Denver, and is one of many that document his build of a 1/16 JN-4. You can ind it on Flickr under the "great Landoni" rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Reference 13-May-16 16:09 Views : 906 BiPlane Guy; If you want a Scientific Wild Ass Guess:I would say that is a cover for the fuel tank hold-down. Look at the picutre and you will see the two brackets on the centerline of the wing that correspond to the shape on your model. Looking at other PT-17 pictures shows that there are thru-bolts through the U-channel to retain the tank. I think.
