Gnome Monosoupape - Roden - 1:32
Marcos Borges replied to Marcos Borges's topic in Works in Progress
Hi Hubert. Thanks for the pictures. I see it clearly now. I saw some pictures in which the engine appears that it doesn't have those staggered push rods. But looking more closely I am sure now that they have. Here are two samples: image 01 image 02 The problem now is how to fix it Perhaps I will leave it this way and try to do a better job in a next project that I have in mind. Thanks for the hint. Cheers, Marcos. -

Hi Hubert, Thanks. I'm not an engine expert too . In this model the plastic rods were replaced by steel rods. The configuration is the one that came in the kit. I will do a research in the images I have here to see if I can figure out these staggered push rods. Cheers, Marcos. -

Thanks Ron. I like engines too. I will start soon a Wolseley Viper. Yes, I will try a laminated prop with oil paints. Cheers, Marcos. -

Hi Guys. I don´t know if this project is in the right place. This is a Roden 1:32 Gnome engine. It is now in the last steps. I have to work with the PE´s in the cylinders heads and simulate the wood grain in the propeller. I replaced the plastic rods in each cylinder front with steel wire and made the wires spark plug wire with copper wire. Cheers, Marcos.

Hi Mike. Thanks. This project is stopped for a while but will be back on the workbench soon. I did some experiments with the wings using MDF and didn´t like the results . So I will try to work with plastic and a more detailed approach like using wing ribs. Cheers, Marcos.

Thank you guys. Here are some update: Iain I have this one in jpg format a bit larger. I'm also vectorizing it in a cad program. I don't have it completed but I can send you in dwg (AutoCAD 2004) or PDF format. You can download the jpg from here: http://www.the-blueprints.com/blueprints/modernplanes/cessna/18076/view/cessna_152/ Cheers, Marcos.
