I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Please disregard, I should have read the replies above more carefully before posting.

Based on your reply here is sounds like you use the plastic part from the kit as the mold?

Micro-Mark, they have lots of neat stuff.

This is so cool.... where did you get the solution's at? I have been looking for someone to do this, because I would love to make some exhaust for my P-40. Thank you David!!!

Another one I missed. The parts are glued together after casting and I did omit the wire on this one. Matt, are you still here? I think Guillows charges about $4 for a replacement plastic sheet, not sure. I've built the F4U twice, a pic of one is in my B 17 build. I'll be doing some more casting very soon and will post pics of the process.

uh oh, I think trying to add an html url broke my last comment. I was trying to say that Shorty's Basement (http://www.shortysbasement.com) has a 20% off sale on all in stock items through December 16th.

Absolutely, they have a lot of quality tools. Everyone may be interested to hear that Shorty's Basement has 20% all in stock items till December 16th.

Ta Dah!!

And you'll save a mint on x-acto blades by getting them from Shorty's Basement (100 for $15).
David Duckett, Comment for image # 263805 Nov 07 06:49
I'm not sure what the manual says. The tools I use are a x-acto knife with lots of extra blades, pins, sandpaper and sanding blocks, scissors, a pencil, pliers,and a metal ruler. Oh, and a paint brush for painting. Other materials are used in the building and finishing but I don't think they would be called tools: CA and Testors wood cement, clear dope, white glue, heavy grade silkspan, masking tape, Liquitex acrylic paints, waxed paper, and Coronas.

Thanks, Poppy. Is there room? From what I've seen all of yours are there. And from the looks of recent work here it seems other models are headed that way, also. That's what I would call "SWEET".

These belong in Guillows Hall of Fame.

Just found this image. You have mastered the art of covering. Beautiful paint and detail!

It looks like you cast each half of an item like a landing gear separately and glue them together. Is that correct? Do you imbed the wire parts or skip them? Jack Gilrein

Looks great! I had no interest in building one of these. Now that I see this one, definately on my list of projects. Super job! Love the paint scheme.

Very impressive to say the least.
