I think that this is going to work. rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Build 10-Feb-16 11:27 Views : 414 OK, now the lines on the front of the board come into play. Using the Olfa cutter and straight-edge, I sliced the paper and string into 3/32" strips. rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Build 10-Feb-16 11:26 Views : 536 GLue applied and waiting for it to dry. It will all flatten out. rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Build 10-Feb-16 11:24 Views : 448 Thinned Titebond glue (didn't have any Elmers white glue) brushed over the thread and paper. Not to liberally! rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Build 10-Feb-16 11:22 Views : 481 Thread woven around the brads, overlaying teh 50# bond paper. rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Build 10-Feb-16 11:21 Views : 451 Even though I struck out on my quest for Nitrate dope in SF, I did find this pure cotton 3/0 machine thread. It is supposed to absorb aliphatic glue better than other (rayon) threads.

I think that next time I will use standard 20# paper. Can you see where I'm heading? rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Build 10-Feb-16 11:17 Views : 454 Covered the face of the board with parchament paper to prevent glue sticking to it. rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Build 10-Feb-16 11:15 Views : 429 I feel like a cobbler. Small brads driven into the edge of the board at every other 3/32" mark. rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Build 10-Feb-16 11:12 Views : 446 Defaced the fine looking board with some lines: 3/32" on both faces. rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Build 10-Feb-16 11:11 Views : 395 Fine looking piece of board,eh? Lets see what I can do with it. rayl Scratch Built Loening OL-8 Amphibian Build 07-Feb-16 12:51 Views : 479 SO, I make the two hour trip to Sioux Falls yesterday to take the wife to a Mall and I can visit the one Hobby Shop that is still open within a 150 mile radius. TUrns out that there is nice young guy managing it now but when I pointed out that he was out of Nitrate Dope, he wanted to know if that was a brand name or the name of it's manufacturer (sigh). We are truly dinosaurs. At least Drodak & Sig are still around. Page (14 in total) :  <<   3   4   5   6   7   8   9   10   11   12   13  [ < Prev ] [ Next > ]
