Ripaman Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 Really nice. Love those currigated hoses. Do you have a source? Thank you. Sincerely, Mark Hi Mark, The ducting I made myself with bending .3mm wire around a .8mm tube [/url] Then use 1/16" shrink tube from an electrical shop, slide it over, then removed from the tube [/url] Used a candle and as I was heating it I stretched it, first attemped went to much opps, then got better at it. [/url] [/url] Got this idea from a package I bought from Hiroboy called air duct hose, but this package came after I tried. [/url] Excellent job my friend ! Very precise work. What did you use for the wire bundles at the front of the engine ?.........Harv Thanks Harvey, very nice talking to you on the phone, cant wait to meet you at the Bomber camp You ask what wire bundle I used it was 2mm Braided hose from Detail Master [/url] Hope that helps, Regards Richard andromeda673 and Lars Befring 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ripaman Posted June 4, 2015 Author Share Posted June 4, 2015 (edited) Richard Looking simply fantastic and thank you for the how to. Keep 'em coming Peter It is a very easy way of making ducting, the nice thing is that you can make any size you want. This is really a stunning build and super modelling. I can't wait to get one of these kits. Keep up the great work. Hi Joe, it is a super kit, it just needs alot of clean up which I dont mine doing. I have looked at their site and have lots of goodies !. And yes a very pleasant call.....Harv I Harv, hope you had a great time at Bomber Camp, it was such a shame i had to cancel at the last minute. Anyway have been doing some small changes to the gun bays, Airfix put the gun rear mount in the wrong place so I cut them of and made four as per a drawing I have, just a few more things to add and I will call them done. [/url] [/url] [/url] [/url] Got to thank Harold from Grey Matter for sending me some new wheels and a few other items, these wheels are great, thank you very much Harold [/url] [/url] Until next time Regards Richard Edited June 4, 2015 by Ripaman andromeda673 and Lars Befring 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ripaman Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 Richard, it was worth every penny ! And the build is coming along fantastic ! I'll try and give you a call soon......Harv Hi Harvey, glad you had a good time, well it looks like we are going to meet this Fall at the model show, will look forward to this, then we can have some together. Richard. ... I know that you probably have gotten many projects on the go...but jyst caught up with this since I last came. truly FLAWLESS and masterful work. . it really impresses ME watching your very detailed work. You are a phenomenal modeler... The workmanship is quite exacting to a standard that WE minions strive to achieve. ...*of course no matter how many years it takes I will still be a novice compared to you.* OUTSTANDING work. ...Please do come back to this when you get the other things done....which I am off to see.. Kudos :worship: Maru you have such a way with words my friend, thank you it is very kind of you to say. Great work! I am so impressed with your solutions for the ducting and other details. Fantastic! Hi Don, do love the detail, I think having the Matador with Coles Crane taking out the engine will look petty good. Regards Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
