LSP_K2 Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 More enjoyable when all goes well....Harv Oh yes, that' so true. Now that my Tony is 100% finished, hopefully I can start getting the MiG 'pit painted this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_K2 Posted October 28, 2016 Author Share Posted October 28, 2016 I hope so....Harv And here we are, Harv. With the Tony now behind me, I've resumed some work on this thing. One additional problem has now been revealed; when looking down the throat (as some zealot judge with a flashlight will surely do, and I've done the reverse of here, using my TAC light to illuminate from behind), the wing connection area is quite visible. Since I've decided that for contest purposes, I'll be adding an FOD cover, I'm not going to worry about this, but it's good to be aware of, in case I later decide to go whole hog nuts on this machine. Either way, I'll have to commit pretty quickly, as I intend to start painting the 'pit very soon.

LSP_K2 Posted October 28, 2016 Author Share Posted October 28, 2016 I lucked out here, as the sandwiched 'pit and splitter extension are a pretty snug fit. Here I've now added the support ledge for rear of tub. Splitter needs to be adjusted somewhat though, as it's slightly twisted to starboard, so that shelf (for front of tub) has not yet been added. Either way, this method allows for complete and solid support, while also remaining out of sight. Shaka HI and mywifehatesmodels 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted October 28, 2016 Author Share Posted October 28, 2016 With 'pit tub now positioned properly (square), I can see some additional areas that will benefit from the addition of some boxes, cables and other gizmos.

Guest Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Nice Kevin. The only drawback to FOD covers is , its a waste of the great resin splitter section.........Harv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have it open most of the time, like when I shoot photos for the site, and display it here in the house. Telepatu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
