Tim Hmmm- the map lights started as styrene rod, cut to length. The on/off knob/rheostat was sliced from hexagonal rod. The mounts came from my watch parts bag..same with the red lenses- the cord is lead wire; wrapped around a tiny drill bit to make a coiled cord.. the placard on the side is from The decal spares box- cheers Pete A-10LOADER and Uncarina 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkwrench Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 (edited) This build is insanely good. Can't wait to see how you tackle the instrument panel and center console. Do you happen to know the size styrene rod? Tim Edited February 26, 2020 by Hawkwrench Pete Fleischmann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dodgem37 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Really nice. Lots of different materials. Decals give it that extra snap. Great show. Sincerely, Mark Pete Fleischmann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

easixpedro Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Damn Pig, those lights are the Bees Knees! Seriously, impressive work! Looks like I could detach 'em and clip them someplace to see what I was doing on the proverbial dark and scary night. It's gonna pop with those figured in the cockpit / cabin Peter Pete Fleischmann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neo Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 This looks amazing. I really like the clear cover ove some panel looks so real. Question how do you work on such small pieces? Magnifying glass? I was thinking of getting those small USB microscopes l. Doing PE get challenging and im not doing part anywhere near the size of the precision you are Pete Fleischmann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
