heywooood | 24-Aug-18 08:01 | I have installed the gravity feed fuel lines, fuel indicator tube, and mirror. All of the wing rigging is done. I can finish the model likely today or tomorrow.
The new work station is an improvement.. |

heywooood | 24-Aug-18 12:31 | Thank you, Don..I know purists might object to the lack of 'fabric' or ribs and stringers in all the usual places but having built and covered display models and seen how they deteriorate over time has led me to change the way I do things. This is indeed a smooth Stearman. And I worked particularly hard to get is as smooth as possible. I used Poppy's trick of wetting the filler and rubbing it into the grain with my fingers. I sure hope he would've liked the results too... |
