Rainer Thanks Rainer, I appreciate that very much considering your high standards! I have been working flat out to finish off the port intake so you can see all the panel line differences. Hopefully fairly soon will be able to post a pic Thanks again chaps! You're what's keeping me going at this point. I think once the intakes are epoxied to the fuse I will feel like I can move on again Cheers Anthony Derek B and D.B. Andrus 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Damian (A-4 very close to ready...how often have I thought that?) Hey Damian glad you're still hanging in there on this build! Quite fancy doing my Trumpy Skyhawk now you mention it LOL... no, no rush buddy! I present to you one Spey intake ready to glue to the fuse when the other side is finished! I havent riveted across most of the top of the intake rear section as this still needs extensive modification of shape. Overall pretty happy with it, especially those new vent sections.....man I spent some hours in there! Thanks as always for stopping by Cheers Anthony easixpedro, chuck540z3, LSP_Kevin and 18 others 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL, thank you Kerry just phoned me and sent through his latest Spey Can update.......these have been studied and measured to within an inch of their lives and are going to be as accurate as you will ever get. Nearly finished now except looking for some more details at the spray ring set up deep inside., if anyone can help? We need someone who has a printer capable of doing these in 1/32 and if there is interest, 1/48. maybe someone might want it in their product line?? Anyway, enough talk Goodness me, 2 updates in one day! Cheers Anthony Paul in Napier, Derek B, Scotsman and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMK Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Wow. The deeper I get into CAD & CAM, the more I’ve come to see it as an alternative way to generate repeatable parts, to a professional or better level. Your build is showcasing the two extremes, done entirely by hand & eye/machine designed & fabricated. Each impressive in their own way.

scvrobeson Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Wow, can't wait to see those nozzles printed out and painted on the model. Amazing what a CAD program can do. Matt Anthony in NZ and Derek B 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starfighter Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 The intakes are absolute perfection and the Speys look brilliant as well! Derek B and Anthony in NZ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek B Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Fantastic Anthony, well done! (now comes the hard part! Glad you have got the 3D print solution at hand, otherwise, I could envisage a grown man reduced to tears! lol ). Onwards and upwards...
