Dr S Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 (edited) Well I have got to finish something for Telford. Only a few weeks left so I'm up late filling the wings seams (again) on the ol' girl. CA Canberra T17. She's still gonna need painting! Hemp and LA Grey. Filling with filler/nail varnish remover. Dries quickly but causes the Halford primer to orange-peel like mad. Out with the wet 'n' dry! G Edited October 17, 2007 by Dr S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary West Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Hope you've remembered to pile that lead weight up front Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr S Posted October 17, 2007 Author Share Posted October 17, 2007 (edited) Hope you've remembered to pile that lead weight up front oooohhhh yes!!! The nose is full of ball bearings. As is the forward region of the engine nacelles. The rear ejection seat is left out and every available fuselage space forward of the leading edge is stuffed with bluetac! Its bl**dy heavy, hope it's enough! G Edited October 18, 2007 by Dr S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 (edited) Looking good, Gavin. I've got that one in my cuboard to build myself. How was the fit of the resin add ons? The kit looks big, don't know were mines going to go when finshed! Shaun. Edited October 18, 2007 by Shaun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are not 4 identical parts. 2 have square intakes on. Don't do what i did and stick the 2 with intakes together as a set and ditto of the 2 without. Too late by the time I had noticed and thus had to fill and scribe. Hope mine turns out as nice as Clive's pair. A T17 and an Argie B2 Gav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
