rayl | 28-Aug-15 20:00 | Hey y'all, I'm back. Short tale of woe: I cut out all of teh ribs and wing parts for the Loening last week, the found that I had used the 1/16 scale set of plans instead of the 1/12 scale. Disgusted is putting it mildly. While recovering from that Faux Pau, I decided to utilize my new minuature Lathe to whip ot a Boeing Delta II Launch Vehicle that carried teh Mars Rover "Spirit" to the Red Planet. So with James (and the general populace's approval) I will turn my corner of the site into the "Virtual Aero(space) Drome" for a while. [James if you could add "Delta II No. 298" to the scratchbuilt cagegory? |
John M Oshust | 28-Aug-15 20:18 | I guess you are serious. The plane was a challenge. A worthy project for your talents. You spent so much time on the wheels. They came out so beauteous.. Spending time on a tube with stabilizers is such a letdown, lathe or not😟 |
rayl | 28-Aug-15 21:26 | The Loening is still on the front burner, hopefully followed by the J2F Duck during teh winter building season. This is just something "Different" that has been floating around in my head for a while. |
jgood | 31-Aug-15 14:07 | Hi Ray. I've added 'McDonnell Douglas Delta II Rocket' to the scratch built section. Hope that's good. |
rayl | 31-Aug-15 14:40 | Excellent James. Thank You! |
