JJ Models Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 For some time now I am planning to build a support to be able to support the models, especially the planes, which will allow me to mount and paint them. Here I leave a basic idea that I have developed which is working very well although after going using it I am looking to make some modifications. I would like you to tell me what you think the support, what improvements you would make and what support you usually use. A greeting and I hope you like it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 There are variations of this stand out there. They are generally made of wood with various ways of adjusting for size: I have the 2nd (and 3rd) type above and love it. Works great for aircraft and ship modeling. Regards, Don.

Joel_W Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 (edited) I also use the same JH stands that Don uses for 1/48 & 1/72 scale aircraft. they cost about $25 from UMM-USA and last a real long time with only moderate care, which is basically cleaning off the rubber that you glue to the top of the supports to prevent scratching of a painted surface. I've seen gone to using rigid foam insulation over the tops of the supports for painting as I can replace those pcs after ever session or model build as a 4 ft section costs about $1. I've also used a shoe box with the rigid foam attached to the 4 sides that works almost as well as the wood stands. Joel Edited December 17, 2017 by Joel_W Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JJ Models Posted December 20, 2017 Author Share Posted December 20, 2017 very interesting those supports, knew them slightly. I wanted to make something of my own, that is more versatile for all types of scales and any position.Greetings and grace for the comments friends Quote Link to post Share on other sites
