Hi

I'm back after long time.

I had to recall what was last. Sorry for so long break. I promise amendment.

I read again your last comments and must say thank you. I forgot how nice it is.

So return to the project. First, propeller. I reworked padels changing their shape. There were foiled next. head of propeller were totaly scrachbuilt.

I decided to create this model almost naked, without skin, but it not allowed me to omit these elements.

Special place for these parts. First, bottom cover of carburator, vacuformed and cut to shape.

Two side covers of the engine with ventilation gaps. It took me month to invent how to do and of witch. I made them from 0.12mm plastic foil and shaped gaps using toothpick.

Thank's for comments

Kevin, Peter, you are to kind, as always.

What can I say about these parts? Side covers I"l be able to do in one hour now, because I have knowledge "how". The way to find out how is most difficult. I don't apprehend to make parts second, third time, because now I know that next one will be better and easier executed.

See you

Tomasz

The time has come. My Boeing is finished after 8 years and about 2500 hours of work. She is worth these efforts. It was most difficult and stresful project in my modeller's career, and the longest one of course.

I'd like to thank you all for support, kind words, likes. 

This is the result.

Thank you Tomasz for sharing it

 

Can't wait to see the RFI, and I do hope it is on public view somewhere? It should be

 

Bravo
