Those small pieces are the radiator and bottom shapes for the wing center section.The tail feathers are cross laminations of 1/16" stock. |

Sometimes it ain't pretty.:-) There are five pieces to the front end. |

Why laser cutting would be nice!! |

The 900 series is a joke relative to scale but they do provide superb decals for many of my builds. Diels kits are much closer to actual scale and that will show much better when some wood is added. |

Framework so much better than the 900 series Guillow's Tyhoon. |

I don't think you can get those cool double kits anymore either. But, Dave's laser kits are superb... But, even when you cut out your own parts, his balsa qulity is top shelf... I will admit tho, with my fumble fingers, these kits are awful small by my standards... But when you blow up his plans, they're a dream... |

Well, I'm partially right. Many of the kits are no longer made and will not be again while some have been changed to laser cut versions and some will be in the future. |

I cut the holes in the wung ribs just for show. It will all be infilled. |

I need to go to town to search for something to make the exhausts for the Cutlass so until I go..... |

I stand corrected. Good, I couldn't stand another EBay/Guillows B-29 saga. The folks building Guillows kits wanting them to fly on rubber bands would be wise to check out Diels kits, or Dumas kits, to see how it's done. Engineering strictly for rubber power makes a lot of difference. And.....Dumas makes all sizes, too. Diels kits are certainly more difficult but well worth the effort. |

I chatted with David Diels a couple of days ago... He seems to be cooking right along...? http://dielsengineeringinc.com |

Diels kits are no longer made and while that may not start an unending thread about sellers on Ebay, I.E. the Guillows B-29, they are already in short supply. I found this combo for $10.:-) |
