seiran01 Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Ah, ok. Ran it over the inside edge before attaching the strips? Quite convincing effect :-) kkarlsen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kkarlsen Posted March 31, 2019 Author Share Posted March 31, 2019 Just to document the tedious work of puttying and sanding trying to get a descend finish, the white primer reveals EVERYTHING!. But she's getting there... Cheers: Kent Shawn M, scvrobeson, Alain Gadbois and 14 others 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 It does, but it also reveals a lot of hard work! Grand stuff kkarlsen and Trak-Tor 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kkarlsen Posted April 18, 2019 Author Share Posted April 18, 2019 (edited) A little progress on the Aeromarine. Started getting my head around how to tackle the wings.. Two sets of upper wings... Lower and middle wings ditto.Trying to figure out where to cut to get the extra feet of wing with... Creating a master for the larger wings struts. I'm planning to cast resin copy's with a 1 mm brass rod in the middle, to add some strength to the struts. Master is ready for mold making... Btw. came across a very nice photo of the F-5-L - Large enough to see some nice rigging details...

Thomas Lund Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 But you need to extend BOTH the span and chord, right ??. Span would be (sorta) ok to do, but I am really looking forward to seeing what you dream up for the chord... I suppose cutting along the thickest part of the wing - where the tangent to the surface is horizontal (am I beeing too much of a engineering nerd now??) - I am thinking that would be the easiest place to add a bit an being able to blend it into the rest of the wing profile kkarlsen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monthebiff Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Now this will be interesting, I've been wondering all through your build how you will tackle this! Carry on as I'm sure you have it all under control. Regards. Andy kkarlsen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kkarlsen Posted April 25, 2019 Author Share Posted April 25, 2019 Wing struts underway... They are all the same size, later they will be adjusted to where they go... Cheers: Kent daveculp, Trak-Tor, LSP_Ray and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
