LSP_Paul Posted August 22, 2014 Author Share Posted August 22, 2014 Posted 21 August 2014 - 12:21 PM Thanks Martin! I managed to get almost all of the over sized and improperly located and spaced rivets removed on the kit last night. I still have to remove them from one fuselage half and the horizontal stabilizers. I did manage to tape the model together minus the interior to see if it's going to pass muster (before I spend a lot of time trying to modify things) and it looks pretty good! The main challenge is going to be scratch building the transmission, rotor mast. modifying the rotor head and scratch building or enlarging the tail rotor. I have all of the FM's for the Huey and have great pics and illustrations of where everything goes, so this should be fun. The Plan for the Rivets is to replace them with Rivet Decals from Micro mark, everything else will have to be scratch built. Here are some quick snaps to show what it looks like at this stage. Im using a spare bolt assembly for an AR to add weight at this stage, it's what I had handy. Thanks for looking in on my build.

LSP_Paul Posted August 22, 2014 Author Share Posted August 22, 2014 Don't Worry Martin Jack and Ernie and Harv and I all talk on the phone regularly I talk to Jack at least 3 days a week. Ernie ( Clunkmeister) runs a 1-800 midget phone sex line out of his basement, so reaching him costs 99 cents a minute, and Harv works nights so you have to call him when he just gets home or right after he wakes up. Sometimes I reach Jack on the phone before the airplane glue has him seeing purple flying elephants, sometimes not. We are all friends.

Martinnfb Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 well, nobody calls me, that's actually a good thing ...considering my heavy accent it would be a one way ticket resulting in awkward silence full of flying midget elephants, or else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
