mareku Posted May 18, 2012 Author Share Posted May 18, 2012 O.k Dryguy! May be that Top Gun is a great movie, but I´ll not sey it is best ever. Sertenly the best movie about Tomcat. Sorry, but that´s my opinion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dryguy Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 (edited) Yeah you're right, definitely not the best movie ever. Probably my favourite movie when I was about 10 years old. Edited May 18, 2012 by dryguy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mareku Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 Small update on the exhoust. Half way done. Vizeble parts are fore inside of the exhoust. After that I stil have to make 36 parts for outside of the exhoust. That is all for now. More soon. Greatings. Marek Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JesniF-16 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 That is very tedious work you've done. It definitely pays off though. Do you cut your foil pieces with a basic hobby knife Mareku? Again, all I can say is WOW /Jesse Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mareku Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 Thanks JesniF-16. The parts are made from 0,3 mm alu plate. And I traces the parts from rhe templet then I kut them with the scissors. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mareku Posted May 23, 2012 Author Share Posted May 23, 2012 The small dezaster striked. My camera is out of order. Can´t recharge the baterys. The batery charger has desapierd. I remember seeing it on the table and then my gorgeus wife has clined it. She loves clining everything. The resalt is that noone can find the charger any more. I had to buy another one on the Ebay. So while I´m waiting for my new charger to come there will be no pictures of what I´v done. All I can say is that almoust all pieces are puted together and the exhoust is allmost ready. Pictures soon. Sorry Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dryguy Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Aren't wives wonderful?! They clean up our mess so that we can never find anything. My wife does put up with a lot though, like me stealing kitchen utensils for modelling purposes. Can't wait to see more pics Mareku. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JesniF-16 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 That's why every time my wife goes near my modelling space I get nervous :o All she had to do is walk by my stuff and something turns out MIA <_< Unfortunately if I lock up my modelling area she can't do the laundry then Don't be making any progress until you get your new camera, please.....
