    Posted by McG 6969 on 30/12/2019 17:55:55: ... "building properly in February", Ade? I do realize it's not a F1 GP, but my best guess is you will be painting the 'conservatory' in Gold again... Cheers Chris Busy couple of weeks ahead Chris, so I thought I can sort out the 3d printed air brakes, so that when I'm building they should just slot in. I've also 'negotiated a two week period in Feb that I need to be home from work...…….' Building will commence at a rapid rate then, helped I must say, by the efforts of the lads. Will be making a 'special' canopy plug in the next few weeks, in between work. Cheers Ade

    Finally commenced building with the air brakes! First attempt at 3d printing, and another 3 to make. I'll be facing off the 3d print with balsa to conform to the fuselage profile. Hopefully show the hinging geometry shortly (once I've worked it out). Will be building properly in February. Cheers Ade

    Posted by Martin Gay on 14/11/2019 16:24:23: That's not good Ade, you have more than one, and less than three models worth of balsa to assemble into ... something or other! I'll probably end up with the 'other'........... Cheers Ade

    Hi Danny, Any chance doing a few post about the RDS adaptors; I'm sure this would be useful. Especially as quite a few of the lads have access to 3D printers. Cheers Ade

    Don't worry about the time, there are many Sabre's that have not hit the bench yet! Let the others make the mistakes, then take advantage And if you like a colour scheme, then go with it. It's your model after all. Cheers Ade

    Impressive Chris, very useful info. I was thinking of using ammonia when planking to ease the stresses. Anyone else used ammonia when planking? Cheers Ade

    Posted by Peter Garsden on 07/11/2019 20:53:15: Watching this one Flyer. I was going to have a crack at this version. I went to Halfords and they told me they were out of stock after a bloke in South Wales bought the entire nation's stock? Incidentally just finished the Vulcan book - really enjoyed it and quite emotional too, reads like a thriller. Will let you have it back at the next meeting. No problem Pete, it's a good read for someone who has an interest in Vulcans. Not 100% sure about that gold paint though, seems to weigh heavier than silver...……. Cheers Ade

    There looks to be a lot of wood in that package; I wonder if there's enough for more than one Sabre? Courier just dropped this off at 4.58pm. Think I may just finish work and get home to clear the building board. Cheers Ade

    Think the prototype had them exiting the bottom of the wing Phil, no doubt Martin will post a pic when he's around. From memory they are side mounted with a small ply plate covering them. Ade

    Well, just ordered my woodpack, as I hope to start this weekend. Been slow out of the blocks as been trying to sort one or two things for the build. Hope to post up a few things in a day or so. And I've ordered more gold paint !! Cheers 'Golden Nugget'........

    Posted by Phil Cooke on 28/10/2019 12:53:15: Plenty of impressive schemes to choose from for the Sabre - but who's up for a conversion challenge?? We all love a 2 seater variant - I didn't even know there was a twin stick Sabre but look what I've found over lunch today - only 2 ever made apparently the project being shelved in favour of the twin seat F-100 in the end. There's other mods including a taller fin and longer tail strake to accommodate the extra nose length - who's up for it?? 'More glass, more class!' Shhhhh Phil......... or they'll all want to do that......... There may well be variants already planned..........
