Ahoy

Not a bit tuckered from the long build of my Halifax bomber, Getting excited about this one. here is a build you dont see at least I havent. This is the Ford Tri- Motor First civil sucessful comercial airliner used whne she was first introduced in 1929 the eve of the great depression. This kit was designed by Mr. PETER A. ZORN,JR. this kiit is in book form I remember seeing it back in 1982 at the Dayton airforce Museum. it cost back then $6.00 I almost bought it a lucky fellow beat me to it I went up to the cashier you have any more of these in stock. she replied no sir. we sold the last one they are out of print. I snapped my fingers DANGggggggggggg Early bird gets the worm. Now is my chance to take a crack at it now is my turn.


As to the kit itself very remarkable engineering complete intereir details consisting of 12 wicker seats for the passengers and pilots compartment along with the toilet and wash basin. a selection of airline markings. the outer skins with the coragated finish are in silver paper giveing it the original all alluminum look as the real machine. I mean to tell you very detailed almost like that of plastic.Dont have a clue what scale but I surmise that it is 1/33 scale like that of the halifax. I have apretty good eye to scale. I will get started on this Tommorow in the morning For now I am getting work bench all cleaned up and getting my tools of the trade ready. this is truely going to be a good build


Before Taps i will take the book to my rack and ingest it to prepare for the build. here are a couple attachments of what in store for us all
