Pete in Lincs Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Forget the B 52. They should have saved the nickname 'BUFF' for these things. Nice job, Where are you going to put it once finished? Pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phildagreek Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Ooooer, I've always fancied one of these but I don't think I have anywhere I can put it. Actually, that's wrong, there are plenty of places I could put it, but SWMBO won't accept any of them! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammy da fish Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 I've made my main rotorblades removable, whilst the tail blade assembly is removed as a whole, therefore easy to store. SF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fu_manchu Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 i saw one of these build up at a show a few months ago, I had no idea how big it was! It certainly should look good when done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpc7676 Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 (edited) Oh yeah! Looking great, have one of these and have pulled it out a few times thinking I will give it a go, but have been frightened by the size and complexity. Good to see someone having a shot at it.

Will Vale Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Looks fantastic! I bought one in a sale recently (at my local shop no less) but not sure when I'll start it. Any problems or hints from your construction experience? Will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
