Oliver,

I am sorry to hear of your mishap. :blink:

I have been following your work and I think your work is INCREDIBLE. :worship:

Oliver you ARE ONE of the best modelers with an eye for detail and one who always bounces back I am sure.

Good luck. :salute:

Oh, that hurts all the way over here! Well, that's one way to become a world authority on scratchbuilding jet engines! I got a smile from the removal of the offending chair wheels- that's how to remove a problem from the equation for sure. Cheers, Oliver- you'll see it through.

Sorry to hear the unfortunate news of the demise of your engine. These things do happen occasionally I guess. I was looking so forward to seeing it done too!

Regards

Andrew

Hi Dan

True in the past I have redone parts several times ...agree with you on that one.

This is by far one I did NOT want to remake at all. I rather be working on the main rotor and blades.

Hi Ray

Thats perfect. Thats just the area I needed to see. Thanks.

I have been using your photos but was missing the one from the top.

Worked on the attachement to secure the engine to the cart today.

Hi

Worked on the engine a bit.

"trying to make a square peg fit into a round hole" I was trying to duplicate the side engine parts but it felt like that line in Apollo 13.

I had to build a frame around the rounded part of the engine in order to attach the upcoming yet to be build parts.

It looks like a screen tv right now but that will change. Had to glue the plastic frame one piece a time and let it dry, a lot of torque on the plastic.

Thanks to Ray for his great photos.

Thanks Anthony. Glad you like it.

Worked on the engine this last few days. Still work in process but its moving along just fine.

I must say that Ray's photos are a big help. I am trying to stay as close to the real engine as I can (for a change).
