BillParker | 01-Dec-09 13:25 | What was the deal on the intake plastics that came with the kit? Too flimsey? |
David Duckett | 01-Dec-09 13:51 | No, the cast piece is much easier to work with because it's hard and yet sandable and is a perfect shape. The front exhaust is also a cast piece from two halves and then glued together, filled and sanded. |
Luke War | 01-Dec-09 15:06 | Those are some great looking nozzles Mr. D...Im confused on the whole casting part though. Any previous builds by you or someone else that illustrate how to cast pieces? Just using your skills with this bird as an idea builder when I start my own Harrier! :) |
jgood | 01-Dec-09 17:27 | Anyone want to do a 'howto' on producing plastic parts? |
frwyflyer | 01-Dec-09 18:13 | I would sure enjoy seeing a 'howto' about making plastic parts |
David Duckett | 01-Dec-09 18:19 | Do you mean making the cast pieces? |
frwyflyer | 01-Dec-09 20:40 | I will try to express myself more clearly. Yes, I would like very much to see (view) a 'howto' on the entire casting process ie: making the patterns/masters, making the mold, preparing the casting media (resin)and filling the mold cavities avoiding trapping air bubbles. Please include the sources of materials and costs. I am in awe of the cast pieces that both you Mr Duckett and Mr. Finn produce. They are amazing! |
