That machine gun looks very realistic, Dan.

Thanks, folks. Erik: That machine gun is pretty amazing. Usually they look sort of silly with a paper cooling jacket (to me...I usually put on a PE jacket) but this one proved me wrong!
Tonight I got the cowling done and the tails started. Looking good thus far! I need to figure out how to attach the tails. It's sort of left to the imagination... :P Cheers, Dan |

Got the tails cobbled together. They look ok though some of the geometry is a bit off. Still looks the part! The tail skid is also nice to have on as it protects everything back there. I think the wing or the landing gear will be next...Stay tuned.

Made, installed and rigged the landing gear struts. I'll work on the wings this weekend!
Cheers, Dan |

You sure have talent, Dan. All of your models are a joy to see.

Very delicate, the rigging between the landing gear struts. What’s your experience so far with the EZ lines?
Regards, Erik |

Thanks Don and Erik! There are many folks on here that are simply amazing. I just try to keep up!
Erik: I love it. I rig all of my plastic models with it too. It's not perfect and you can't really use it with turnbuckles to easily...but it looks nice and is fast when done. I just use thick CA to attach it along with some accelerator. I actually have a lavish extremely well-produced video on the subject (ha, ha)! In case you want to take a look... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DHrREcrIFM&t=89s Cheers and thanks for the comments, Dan |

All,
I am starting the engine which is rather tedious but slow and steady wins the race. I got the basic crank case done and it will spin along with the prop on the firewall. I also got the prop done too. More tomorrow! Dan |

VERY important aspect of early rotary aero engines that. But not surprised a talented builder like you knows that Dan.
