dodgem37 Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 'The curve was created bending the mold, while the resin was still soft...' You bent the mold and not the casting? Very nice. Good show on the bottom cushion slipping in underneath the arm rests. I like the curve of the seat and back. Sincerely, Mark kkarlsen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sincerely, Mark Eeehmm, I quess you could do both. This was a first for me. When I did the masters for the cushions, I hadn't noticed the curve. If bending the mold wouldn't have worked, I would probably have tried bending the casting, which would require a little timing... But hey, I didn't get resin on my fingers for this one!!!

With this build it's really uphill all the way, as there's absolutely nothing that just goes into place. Every part has to be modified/scratched to some degree. I'm actually looking forward to the rigging... Now the fitting of the parts into the converted cockpit, has developed into a bit of a nightmare. It's an endless series of trial and error to get everything fitted into place. There's really no extra room anywhere. I've deliberately postponed working on the piping for the fuel tanks, as there's almost no space for the fuel lines and pipes. But I'm sure they were there... somewhere. . Now the main parts for the cockpit have found their place, I think, the last parts to fabricate, are the rudder pedals... Then again, I have no idea, where to put the gauge panel for the fuel tanks, every little space is already occupied...
