| Skyediamonds1985 | Guillows Series 800 - Stearman PT-17 | Build | 03-Jul-15 19:01 |  | | Views : 1154 | | Okay guys. This is my first model after almost 30 years of abstinence. With it, comes trials & tribulations with dashes of lessons learned (and errors to avoid). Keep in mind, all I have are: a pair of tweezers, needle nose pliers, scissors, an X-Acto knife and lots of imagination. Going to start off on how I (somehow) managed to scratch build the radial engine for the Guillow's PT-17. |
