Side-by-Side B-17G Beta Build

[Ron40]

Kevin,
Can you check to see if you have the
latest interior sheets of the interior colors.
The pictures seem to show an olive drab
color whereas the new color scheme is a
chromate green. Maybe it's just how the
color shows up in the photo's....Ron

I see you started on the midsection, the real part one, I think I'll follow the same route.. Was a bit confused were to start, ; Part 1 ,Sheet 1, Former A,:D

Billy,
The build sequence for the fuselage follows
the part numbers. Primarily because the interior
parts require that sequence for assembly...Ron

Your usual clean and precise work so far, Kevin. No problem with CA glue fumes fogging the clear film?

Yes I'm using the most recent color scheme. The green is lighter than what was on the previous files. I'll give you a comparison photo later to show the difference.

No problem so far, I did a small test prior to diving in on the real thing. I hope it continues to work. There's alot of windows!

I've had good luck using CA glue with window parts lately. If you position and allow the fumes to vent away from the clear, you should be fine. It's when I use it in an area where the fumes can't escape away from the clear that the fogging happens.

Or maybe I am just REAL lucky.

All looking great thus far Gentlemen. The fogging only seems to be a real problem with the LIQUID type, i use the GEL type which i also have had NO problems FOG wise. Keep up the great work guys, on this wonderful design of a Beautiful piece of aircraft history Nice one Ron

If you coat your clear parts with Future/Klear floor wax, it prevents the fogging from CA fumes...

my internet connection here is very unstable, but i did part one and the interior, looks good fits good, too bad the windows are so smal...
