John M Oshust | 17-Feb-08 18:36 | Back in the building business. Wing spars roughed out. The Rat is sure going to have some big wings! |
John M Oshust | 17-Feb-08 18:49 | Excuse me not spars, but ribs....hold the sauce! |

JohnG. | 17-Feb-08 18:53 | Ah yes, Uncle Carlo must be assisting again. What wing span is this baby gonna have??? |
John M Oshust | 17-Feb-08 21:56 | 1/8 scale, 44 inches |
sweetwillie | 18-Feb-08 13:46 | I'll look forward to this build. I looks like it will be up to your regular standards.
John, I've stripped all the tissue off the F4B and have covered it with 1/32 balsa. And have painted it partially, I'm wanting to put a 1" red stripe around the fuselage, just behind the cockpit. How do you get the stripe straight and even, I'm stumped. HELP!! |
John M Oshust | 18-Feb-08 14:14 | SW I know what you mean...rubber bands to act as a guride for the stripe, marked the stripe with a marker when the bands were straight and parallel, then painted it carefully by brush and paint marker. |
