edbecky | 10-Aug-19 15:29 | I saw this stand in mattolson's photo's and I had to have it. Of course trying to hurry and build it so I could return to my build I drilled a hole in my finger. Not really that bad when I got the bleeding under control. :) Anyway back to the build and confidence is high on movable parts. Great photos of wheel and wing details on many of your sites. Funny that about 65% of my kit is laser cut and the rest dye. First experience with laser and I LIKE IT. |
David Duckett | 11-Aug-19 15:36 | About working features: Building the working features in this kit is a a satisfying thing to do but think about how much work they will actually do. How many times will you retract the gear or fold the wings or move the tail feathers or ailerons? And the flaps! I like to build all those things as separate units but glued in place on final assembly. Flaps down on a Corsair is a great look. Dirty, they call it. |
edbecky | 13-Aug-19 11:52 | David, I've got all this stuff to think about and now you tell me this. I think my grandson will move these parts until they break off. Maybe I'll keep this one. I agree with you on the flaps down look. |
