Jabba Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I am building a helicopter in 1/72nd with an internal ammo box and a belt of bullets is supplied in resin. This part is in a straight line and in order to fit it from the ammo box inside of the fuselage to the gun at a window, it requires some reshaping. How can this be done withou breaking it?

Dave Swindell Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Hot water or hair drier to heat it up and gently bend to shape, then dunk in cold water to set it. Test on scrap resin offcut first if possible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
