MSea:
What are you 2 trying to say about me - hohohohohho

cph64:
After enjoying the Indian summer and getting work done in the garden it was time to return to the resin. Casting blocks were sawn from the wings and body halves but when I came to fit the latter together it was apparent one side was warped (so it's not just MSea!!). Despite being bathed in warm/hot water it has refused to bend back. I think it must be due to the thickness of the resin so brute force and ignorance will be the rule of the day when it comes to joining. Sanding down the wings created what looks like a like of coke, perhaps a hint at what I'll need to finish this project, lol!!!
I've created a floor and rear cockpit bulkhead from 45thou sheet but when I trial fitted the console it sat off centre so a lot of sanding and scraping of the cockpit sides has been done but it still needs further work. I may end up sourcing another from the spares box.

zak:
A real challenge.
Stick with it, it is certainly an unusual aircraft.

chriswil42:
Yes, the joys of resin. I know how you feel Chris. Must get back to mine.

zak:
Remember to wear the mask.
