LSP_Ray 6,777 Posted January 14 That is some impressive detailing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dodgem37 7,396 Posted January 15 Thank you, Brothers. Finished up the Cockpit and Engine Mount Compartment. A couple of squashed solder balls as fasteners. Black electrical junction box, wire, and tape clasp. Added a switch and crank. Finished up the firewall and roughed in some piping. Empty slots will receive yellow and red wiring. Engine Mount to Firewall mounting connection made up. Another view. Luckily it fit. Another test fit. Vent hardware. Added cabling. It will go through the pulley in the next photo. Pulley. Drilled hole a top to thread the cable. Hole across from pulley is an ERROR, ERROR, ERROR, WILL ROBINSON! Or is it DANGER!? The other hole will accept the three wires from above. Center Engine Mount support structure. Bunch of rods and handle around the canopy crank. Fitted. Thanks for looking.

dodgem37 7,396 Posted January 22 Thank you, Brothers. 'Looks like some real Optivisor-level work there!' Indeed. I used to use a 10x watchmakers loupe I picked up from somewhere. But my nose kept getting in the way! Small update. The things you do for love . . . Not so focused. Oh well. Attempted to make the inner door retraction arm a bit more accurately. That's better. A nut will go on top of the brass eye. Still have to trim the rod-to-D ring connection. Udder side. Double-sided adhesive film as temporary fastener. Thanks for looking and liking.
