Build-up by Sandy Alan Squitieri Final chapters / Extra details !
...
I added the aux. intakes and bypass vents, this will not weaken the fuse in any way. Also this scoop
was added by using a hot knife and scrap glass as previously discussed earlier in this build-up.
...
I
used the Graupner Nav. light kit and switched out the rear tail led to an
all white unit. I later added
the
stab lights by gluing them in with ca glue and shapeing them to desired fit,
careful not to go too far
as
you can ruin the element. Yes , they do indeed work and quite well as they
have been set in a
45
degree anlge prior to shaping so they can be seen brightly at all angles.
...
II
added this cooling vent here, screen gets added after paint. The spolier
onthe boom is simply
added
by using 1/32 ply ca glued to the skin.
...
I now paint the enitre area of the lower floor with the wood to prevent
a fuel spill from soaking
the
glass! works great and is much easier to do this way... I brush on urethane
PPG paint.
...
There
doors were made from scratch using scrap glass.. a cable loop grabs to gear
to pull them closed.
...
Just
some different angles of the gear all done....
