Last post by Dave T - Yesterday at 10:32:26 AMThe woodcarving part of the solid model process in enjoyable, but the thought of molding plastic canopies and then adding interior details ruins the experience for me. 
Not sure if anyone has even tried vacuforming here on SMM before, so kudos for that.
So, does the canopy blank have to be carved slightly smaller to allow for the thickness of the plastic?

Last post by lastvautour - Yesterday at 06:44:13 AMIt is always good to have a standby project. My Avro 504 is starting to feel the same.

Last post by Boomerang - April 28, 2024, 09:59:25 PMThe BAT has been relegated to when I get time. Will probably end up like the Flycatcher (long term).

Last post by Boomerang - April 28, 2024, 09:57:10 PMI have revised my approach to the Battle.
The vac form canopy is oversize. Plus doing something to the cockpit would add weeks to the project.
Soooo....
The fuselage is nearly at where I want it. Shape etc..,
Undercarriage will be UP.
Picture to follow when further progressed.
