Martin Fane Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Hi All New Spinner from Sarik. Much better size wise than the initially provided part Only complaint is the profife is slightly distorted. It is apparent to the naked eye then when compared against a straight edge is confirmed. Not sure if Im being too fussy ??? For an electric powered model maybe the aluminium spinner is overkill and a candidate for use as a mould for a vac formed item ??

Martyn K Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Does it have an Ali back plate Martin? It looks like you need to cut the slots for the prop as well. That will be fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Fane Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Martyn Yes backing plate and fixing bolt / extension nut included. Agreed the cutting out will be tricky. Anyone up for vac forming ????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose L. G. Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Hi Ernie. Great work on the metal parts. I`m interested in two sets of parts. Thanks. JoseLG (Previously in the listing) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose L. G. Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Hi Martin. Usually the aluminum spinners (scale) don`t have the prop cutouts. You have to make your own cuts. I`ve made a silicon mould and had made a few carbon spinners for the community…... Cheers. José Luis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Fane Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Hi Jose Thanks for the feedback. I would be intesersted in a carbon spinner regards Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Fenton Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Posted by Stuart Rusby on 12/07/2018 20:47:12: Hi Fenton Furies! I have recently completed a 1/6th scale Mick Reeves Spitfire which I have electrified, just one wing and very few bendy bits I'm afraid! Would very much like to join the Fury gang if that is acceptable Danny? I've been trying some litho forming using annealed thin material for the cowl blisters - re your article in RCME. Works well. I have also built a half wing of the Fury to test my limited skills with silver Oratex. Main thing I learned is to monitor the iron temperature carefully, the polyester fabric has a relatively high percentage shrinkage. Also the need to think through the best wing rib support during construction due to the underside camber. With my best wishes, Stuart R. Hi Stuart, sorry for not responding sooner, have been working away and missed your post, thanks Chris for the nudge! Stuart, you are more than welcome to join the gang, the more the merrier Great news on the spinner chaps though as you say the distorted sides do look odd. One thing you need to remember about spinners with the cutouts. They are rarely cut for CW propellers, uncut spinners leaves the choice up to the modeller. Mine will be electric with a CW prop Cheers Danny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernie Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Hi Furybuilders I need to finally establish the names and adresses of all who need the etched parts. Also, I need to be paid, because the numbers are ever creeping up, and I don't want to finance the whole shooting match myself. So Can I have Names and adresses, and a paypal payment for £25 to [email protected] If you are outside europe, then just add another £5 The final order will go off to the etchers at the end of August, and I'll post the bits off as soon as I have them ernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon Whitehead 1 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Ref spinner cutting. I found this series of annotated photos on a forum some time ago. Apologies for not noting the name of the originator. Hope this helps Gordon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon Whitehead 1 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Hi Danny It's not my photo sequence. The last time I had to trim a spinner was years ago, well before I found this photo sequence, and I can't really remember how I did it. Probably by chain-drilling a series of holes, joining the holes with a very thin rat-tail file, then finishing off using a dremel with coarse grit grindstone to get the overall shape, with a half-round rat-tail file for finishing.
