  1. A couple of videos showing a large scale rc SCA with Space Shuttle. http://s362974870.onlinehome.us/forums/air/index.php?showtopic=239966&st=0&gopid=2340948entry2340948 Look out for a little surprise.
  2. If you haven't already downloaded the files with pictures that can be found here: http://s362974870.onlinehome.us/forums/air/index.php?showtopic=242057 Then i would recommend that you do so. Not only for the SCA's but also the rest of the Shuttle pics.
  3. The best part of a film sequence for me is the one beginning at 0,19 an ending on 0,30 in this youtube clip: The entire race is the best sequence ever and the movie is in my top ten. Oh, what movie? It's Bjergkøping Grand Prix aka Pinchcliffe Grand Prix or the original Norwegian titel Flåklypa Grand Prix. It is possible to get it here: http://www.caprino.no/movies/en/flaaklypa.asp It comes with Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish, Danish and English languages and Norwegian and English subtitles. PAL and NTSC versions are available. I have grown up with this movie, it was the first movi
  4. I have gotten the ALT and current detailsets for the SCA's from Muroc today. They look great. 2 parts are not fully cast, but replacement parts is included. I think this is is a nice touch and great service. David you clearly understand how modelers think. I am very satisfied. Now I have to find the time to do something about the projects, I am running out of excuses. :blush: Thank you very much Tony and David, it is great work. Have a very nice weekend Dan DanTDBV (The Droid Building Viking)
  5. I thank you all for the great contributions. It is a pleasure to see and hear about the great tools you've made. Keep'em coming and remember pictures pictures. It is easyer to spin something around in the head, when you can see it. Well it is for me. :blush:
  6. I could not agree more #1 Greywolf. It is great to see.
  7. Pictures PetarB, please, please pulelelelelelessseee ples? "Big wet begging dog eyes" icon It would be great to see.
  8. Great job and great pics Adam. I am also going to steal your Multi-tool idea. I just hope that the lathe will be up to it. I think it will have to be slow going. Very slow.
  9. That is great RiderFan Do you have any pictures of your tools? I would like to see them. I have to ask, since i didn't catch the Galaxy Quest joke. (It's been too long since i have seen it) :blush: Or it might be because i'm building at lathe myself and the motor is from a cordless drill. Any kind of ideas and inspiration is helpful.
  10. For a guide about using and more important, get future in most of it's variations and suggestions for alternatives, go here: http://www.swannysmodels.com/TheCompleteFuture.html To some it's the future bible. About different formulas, well it could be because that some chemicals is not alloved in some countries and legal in other, so they have to change it.
  11. When i made my own version, my research showed me, that I should expect to get bladeflex. What little testing I have done, showed me that it is mostly dependent of technique. Cutting in the same strip, I could get a deflection in either direction, depending upon whether I used a stop or not. I got the most consistent results, when pressing the strip firmly against the stop. When cutting thick strips, the most common wisdom, is to make shallow cuts and turn the piece around until you get through and I agree with it. My solution is to use the sander for few pieces and the duplicutter for man
  12. As the purpose of this thread is inspiration, I better start to try to be inspirational. Lets begin with the Chopper, Sanders and Duplicutter. The tools are base on NWSL's â€ÂThe Chopper I, II, IIIâ€Â, â€ÂThe True Sanderâ€Â, â€ÂDuplicutter IIâ€Â, Micro-Mark's â€ÂChop-Itâ€Â, â€ÂSand-It†and â€ÂDuplicate-It†The Longsander is inspired by a website, that unfortunately no longer exists. Apart from the inspiration, the main reason for making them myself, is the total cost. The Chop-It goes for about 23$. With shipping added, that is to about 42$. When i

  15. Homebuild Modeling Tools I am creating this thread in the hopes, that it could be an easy to find place, to share our creativity and inspire others. I also hope that this could be the place to get help for your homebuild tools. Post about your homebuild or modified tool/s. It doesn’t matter if it is ancient or very simple, you never know when it is useful to somebody else. For this to work as intended, this is something that ought to be pinned, but that is for the rest of you to decide. Why do I as a very new member do something like this? Recently I have finished my 5. homebuild tool,
  16. Thank you Pete! It's good to be here. I agree with you about RealSpace ARC. As for my contributions “Well I’ll do my very best!†If you don't know what I'm referring to then watch this. The fun begins at 2,26. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVd_VLO9xcc Except for the one year, the Danish National TV Station DR decided not send this, which caused quite an uproar, this have been a part of New Year's Eve, for as long as I remember. If you want to know more about this, go here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinner_for_One Sorry, back on track. :blush: I bet that you eventually w

  19. Hello all. I have posted a bit so now i think it is time to introduce myself. I am Dan Nielsen from Denmark. Other than realspace I do aircraft, cars, ships, sci-fi, armor and other stuff. Currently I plan on building 10 Space Shuttles Scale is 1/144, unless something else is mentioned in the text. 1: PlayShuttle, no paint, no filling just lightly sanding. Minicraft Orbiter, Revell stack and MLP 2: Enterprise, ALT freeflight 5 on SCA 905 in flight. Revell Orbiter and 747. 3: Columbia, STS-1 on pad, just after (HBOI) Hydrogen Burn Of Ignitors or (ROFI's) Radially Outward Firing Initi
  20. I have begun reuploading these files on another filestorage site since the old one has changed policies again. They where uploaded for the first time in the beginning of 2009. The following filesets are up and the rest will follow before Christmas Shuttledvdcontactsheets.rar 002. 747 SCA.rar I have gotten a DVD with about 931 highres Shuttle and SCA pics from Tony Landis, most of which is not available in these resolutions anywhere else. I think they are great. Tony Landis Quote I'm just glad some people can finally find a use for some of this stuff. Feel free to share the images with
  21. Those are excellent builds Tony. They and the detailsets (I hopefully will get those when I can afford them.) are inspiration for me to get on with my SCA projects. No I have not abandoned them, but deciding on how to do the interior of 911, has definitely been a brake. Oups, Tony knows about my projects, but I better tell the rest of you about them also. Both in 1/144 SCA 905 with Enterprise in flight just before the release on ALT freeflight 5. Revell Orbiter and 747 Cutaway SCA 911 with Atlantis after the ferryflight to her second OMDP in 1997.

  22. If you chose to do STS-125 you would be very much helped with the EVA Checklist and the PDRS Operations Checklist to be found here: http://www.nasa.gov/centers/johnson/news/flightdatafiles/foia_archive.html There are pictures and drawings of tools and hardware and their placements in the PLB. Another great help would be the Cargo Systems Manual (CSM) files that can be found on NASASpaceflight's L2 forum, it also have pictures of HST, not to mention the boatload of highrez pictures you can't find anywhere else, not only for STS-125 but also other missions. In my opinion a membership is well
