Hello!
I would like to present you a report from test building of my next project. This time it will be a Norwegian floatplane Høver M.F.11 in scale 1:33. More on this plane can be read here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine...fabrikk_M.F.11 The project will test by Tim Crowe. At the beginning some renderings and photos of sheets. Best regards.

Lets get started:
First task was to laminate the required sheets onto 1mm card. This detailed model has four and a half A4 sheets to laminate. Next stage was to cut the fuselage formers out ![]() Some of these parts are quite tricky and some parts required a new blade for each cut. Luckily I buy them in boxes of 100. ![]() After a few mishaps. I decided that some sections required strengthening from CA glue. The ruler was used to keep things nice and straight ![]() Spent two evenings to building up the frames. The fit of the parts is excellent. There is still a lot of work to do on the fuselage, before any skins are fitted. Tim |

Back off holiday. Time for some more building:
![]() Next part is the instrument panel. Cut the circles out using dermal punches. ![]() Greyed the white area around the instruments. Then gave a coat of gloss varnish, to simulate glass. ![]() Once dry I glued the panel in place, and added some levers. There is even a small knob for the Direction Indicator. ![]() Last part is the addition of the steel framework into the fuselage interior . I used garden wire, painted matt black. ![]() Tim |
