| While I'm waiting for the Gloss White paint to dry: I always try to let white sit for a least a week before I touch it, I started to work on the Landing gear. The progression from left-tp-right: (1) Cut out the shape on the jig-saw, (2) establish the shape of the tire on the lathe, (3) drill the hub hole out to finish the tire, (4) machine the hub to size out of "black" PVC pipe, (5) machine the Hub disc out of 3/16" plexi. The Nose Gear yoke above was assembled during our last snowstorm, all out of styrene. |
