I purchased the 701 Engines, Transmission, Tail Rotor, and Resin Crew. Pete Fleischmann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zorro Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 On 2/16/2020 at 5:47 PM, Pete Fleischmann said: Hey Tim- I cut off the molded-on ones..then made 2 new ones by slicing off some styrene rod for the knobs, and then attached some styrene levers to the knobs. I don’t worry too much about getting the lever length the same until the knobs are attached. Once I have two rough ones, I’ll trim the levers to the same length. here is a look at a few map lights coming together. I use double sided tape to keep tiny parts from flying away. Also; I’ve had a bag of random wristwatch parts for years..I use this to find assorted tiny details/shapes that might be useful- in this case I’m searching for 3 identical posts for the map lights. You can find a bag of watch parts on eBay for a few bucks- cheers Pete Watch Parts? What a great idea!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zorro Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 On 4/15/2021 at 11:55 PM, LSP_Kevin said: Good news! Pete and I will be collaborating on producing an eBook of his build for KLP Publishing. It won't be super soon, as I have a number of projects ahead of it in the queue, but we've already got the cover nailed, so the rest should be easy! Stay tuned to the KLP website or Facebook page (and here on LSP) for more news as it happens. Kev Pete, I just purchased your book - what a great idea. This book will be much easier to navigate than this website during my build. It contains a lot of good ideas. Thanks. Zorro LSP_Kevin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scale_artisan Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Congrats Pete! Amazing work!!! With the opportunity, did the H-60 in general, ever have tinted glass (e.g., doors, windscreen, etc)? I saw recently an old Hasegawa kit (in 1/72) with the clear parts all tinted...
