Johnny,
I've been keeping an eye on Bruno's kits and will be looking for older planes for the "museum". You are right about rearranging the buildings - at the moment they are arranged vertically, to save space ;-) I'm also attaching a photo of some of the Sea King, this is the Minibox method of plane making.

I'm amost through my reserve of 1/300 scale models. So I'll have to slow down a bit. I can't design as fast as that especially when I'm working (which seems like always )
In order to give you something, here is a "tabless" (and somewhat older) B737-800 model of a Ryanair plane. In the meanwhile I try to complete a new model in my evenings and when I have enough energy. |

Grateful as we are for these free downloads, please don't knock yourself out trying to satisfy the demand. Your health MUST come first, and I for one release you from the obligations of any rash promises made in the beginning. You've more than proved your point and gained our humble respect. We all now KNOW that you are well capable of designing and building these things faster than any of us can keep up, just building them. So may I suggest that you slow down the pace, and maybe start to enjoy the builds more. These little beauties are way too small for my old eyes and hands, but boy am I enjoying the challenges they are giving me. Keep on snippin' ... Johnny. PS: Very little progress on the Bison. Took a while figuring out HOW to make the engines. I could see what was required, but figuring out how to persuade the card to do it stretched the old grey cells a bit, but the first half of one is complete. Maybe tomorrow. |

- for the list of models missing. (I was afraid my reserve had dried out) - for the consideration with my health. - for the absolution you gave me. - for the kind words and the respect. (Although I rather do it for the fun, my own and that of others) And don't worry, I enjoy building these models (fast). |

Hi,
I just received a building question on the middle struts of the 1&1/2 strutter model. So for those who try out the model, the middle struts should be scored lengthwise to make them double and scored several times (along the grey lines) in the other direction so you can make them into a W-shape. The struts must not be cut in different pieces. That is actually what makes this plane unique and what gave it it's name. Here are a few pictures that might clarify. S&P |

Err
'Scuse the ignorance but why's it called a 1&1/2 strutter? I can count 12 of them. Johnny. |

Thanks Johnny,
Not only did you start me off with an airport - now I'll have to start a heli museum as well ;-))) BTW there's loads of 1:250 on the same site - should be worth while scalling them to 300 as well..... Mike |

Thanks for the Sopwith pics, Bruno. All is clear now.
