scvrobeson Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 Hey Mike, I was wondering if you could explain how you make the bases for your builds? I'd like to try making a base like this for my PZL, but I have no experience in it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandbagger Posted June 18, 2023 Author Share Posted June 18, 2023 Hi Matt, Basically I have made the Acrylic display cases to order. The base is just a grass mat ('Polak' mats usually) which are cut to shape and stuck onto the display base with PVA ahesive. Figures etc are pinned and secured in holes drilled into the base, through the grass mat. Aircraft are not secured to the display base, just located in troughs cut through the grass mat. That makes it easier to remove the aircraft for transporting. If you download any of my build logs (my site - Logs page) the end of the build log will have a chapter on the display base, Mike scvrobeson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
