Rigging is realistic. What are you using?

Lou

Some elastic thread that I had on hand. It is clear/white so lightly brush some silver on.

Gordon

I need some off that for my Finch. The monofilament  use is too stiff. I have used it on my other biplanes but want something else.

Lou

 Can be a bit fiddle. Got around that with lots of pre drilled holes. Loose end attached with superglue and then pulled through the appropriate hole.
Have finished the rigging. Attached the fuel pump. All that's left is undercarriage and propeller . A bit of final quality control then its done.

Pictures to follow.

Cheers

Gordon

That extra wing looks to make the rigging at bit more challenging. Looks great.

Fraser

Nearly done . But not quite.

Knocked back the elastic thread with a wash of silver/black.

Fuel pump added.

Rigging for undercarriage and attachment of propeller to be done.

Cheers

Gordon

May I assume you use superglue for attaching the rigging thread?

Lou

 Yes superglue.

A steady hand and a pair of tweezers.

Gordon

I looked at several place without any luck, so monofilament will have to do again.

Lou

Took awhile but I deem it finished. Some small bits have been left off.

 Flown by FHM Maynard, RP Minifie and RS Dallas of 1(N) Sqn 1917.

All ended up as aces. Roderick Dallas was shot down and killed in June 1918.

A couple more.

That is one terrific Sopwith Triplane. I love the details you lavished on it and that rigging thread is very realistic. I look forward to more WWI aircraft from your bench.

Lou

Thank you Lou. Did take a while but enjoyed it and learnt a bit along the way.

Cheers
