Tom... The 'Kerf' is the width of the saw blade... here... SteveJ

Vertical Stab.. skeleton..

Some more done, The photos tell the tale. Closed loop on Rudder, snakes for tailwheel and elevator. The inners are 2mm piano wire, a nice smooth fit into the outer. The tailwheel is a modified version of the Blackhorse Stuka version, which is sprung to a limited extent. I had to make it attach to the snake internally... alas in the Blackhorse version, it attaches outside the fuselage - sacriledge. The sides are actually on and shaped, I made the vertical stab and rudder today as well. Enjoy.

Glued to this one.

Thanks all for the positive comments. I know a 'like' button has been requested (or talked about) several times now, but seems to have gone unheeded. Indeed Dave you can bookmark the thread (look right at the bottom, there's a bookmark link). Just for you sir I will update my Ju87 build shortly... Also I'm not sure about documenting failures, Peter. I don't have any

A chap who likes tinkering with four strokes? I thought I was the only one..

Hi All. This is not intended as a moan, just for analysis really! I've done a few build logs on here and elsewhere, and I have spoken to a couple of experienced builders not on this site, but have also posted logs elsewhere. The pattern seems familiar; they seem to get off to good start, with good interest. After a while, the interest seems to wane, and we seem to question ourselves as to whether we should really continue (or even started!!) I know you all fully appreciate what goes into a build and the time taken not only to build but to try and picture it and log it as well and any comments you have all made on mine and others is appreciated. Have others found the same?

Clarification needed by the Ashbys..

TJD Models - a lacklustre performance

An epilogue I have been contacted by TJD, a very positive reponse indeed. I won't go into the conversation, I will only add that they have taken on board the comments here; I will be meeting with them shortly. Thank you to all who contributed here - and of course for TJD and their reponse. -
Looking at my mMarutaka Stuka drawings... Wing and tail are dead parallel to the thrustline.. i.e. no incidence at all. Usually I would trust 0.5 - 1 degree... what say you

HEY GUYS!!! A ripping issue - lathework..airbrushing.. TN's Hawk.. Radio stuff... Love it, Love it, LOVE IT. Can't say enough. WELL DONE TO ALL.

Hi All.. Your thoughts please. The full size Stuka hada free swivelling (castering) tailwheel. So, implemented on a scale model? Not looking for fantastic ground handling - just something that won't give me problems

Never needed a hub puller on any FS engine I've dismantled. Small blowtorch on the drive hub always released it. And yes you can trust my advice
