LSP_K2 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 I suspect you're safe. For all I know, they snatched the idea from you. You know what they say about imitation and flattery. D.B. Andrus, Uncarina and Out2gtcha 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-17 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Is it just me, or is anyone else skeptical that the metal rods inside those stretch the entire length of the strut like the SOW ones do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you please rephrase this? it doesn't make much sense to me as it is. How does a metal rod stretch the entire length of a strut if said metal rod is of a finite length? I've never heard of any issues with Damian's (SOW) products and although I've not yet tried them, I'm quite sure if there's any issues, he'll stand firmly behind his products.

B-17 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 (edited) This is an example of the SOW design I was trying to describe. He contours a metal rod to match the shape of the entire strut. This reinforces the entire strut including the axel. He then surrounds it with a section of stainless tubing in the shock strut area. I am wondering if the ones in the review are just stainless tubing in the shock strut area, while the rest of the gear is resin. Hope that clarifies Edited February 5, 2021 by B-17 LSP_K2 and D.B.

Rick Griewski Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 I am not much interested If the new have tubing just in the shock strut area. I can and have done that. The full length reinforcement is the ticket. D.B. Andrus, coogrfan, Out2gtcha and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, the only way we'll know about their product attributes is for someone to review them and post the review online or through personal experience.

Troy Molitor Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Damian, One stop shop, S.O.W. You listen and delver to what we ask for. Imitations can copy an idea but not necessarily replicate a good engineering idea! Russian Concorde, Russian Space shuttle, Su-27, Toyota: Pick up trucks, really???? English: Boris Johnson. Just kidding folks and just for humor not to offend!! D.B. Andrus and LSP_K2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzas Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 " The company specialises in the design and manufacture of high-quality multi-media detail sets in 1/48 scale." Doesn't sound like your gig, Damian. D.B. Andrus, D Bellis, Rick Griewski and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
