Pauli72 | 26-Apr-12 13:26 | Great lookin' hella-ka-peter! Was this whole thing built just from plans? If so, did you have to scratch build/form the windshield bubble too? |
Dale1416 | 26-Apr-12 15:55 | Yes, just from plans. Windshield bubble is from a vacuum formed packaging of a $1.50 item bought at Wal-Mart. Original plans showed three main divider strips on which 8 pieces of celluloid are glued on to form a bubble shaped windshield. One piece bubble makes for a more correct appearance. |
Pauli72 | 27-Apr-12 00:57 | I agree Dale. It looks like it was made just for your kit. I just had to laugh, guessing what package it came from by the shape. I had to buy one every year for football season. LOL! But I suppose $1.50 would preclude THAT from being the item. Great job on the Sikorsky R-6. |
