Specter1075 Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 I'm not sure I've every seen anything like that. If you find something, be sure to let us know. I think most people are forced to use images to sort out where panel lines and rivets go. Do you have a copy of DACO Publishing's B-1 book? I think it's the best one-stop complete walk around.

utley Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Ive a DACO, doesnt really show much of anything when it comes to rivet details, and really doesnt show much of anything on the engine nacelles either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Specter1075 Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 I have a few books on the B-1b, but Im in the midst of a move and its all packed up. If you have no luck, I'll post again in a few weeks with all that I can find. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Squizzy Taylor Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 I’m really glad to see this thread up and running again! There’s a heap of information in here, current builds and ideas that get passed around, and I’ve also got the kit put away in the stash! It’s the platinum edition, and my plan is to fully deck the bone out with a full complement of resin and photoetch aftermarket gear! My plan is in about two years to start it, as I’ve just jumped from 1/32 to 1/48 aircraft, there’s so much more choice of quality kits to build, I want to finish at least 5 or 6 kits before tackling this monster! Please keep the info and photos on current builds coming in! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Im going on 1 month and it hasnt even left port yet, so play the long game with this one. Also he just finished up the rotating launcher stations and they are a masterpiece; Ill hopefully be the first in line to get me a set or 2, but he has a LOT of goodies to go with it too. Get them all if you can; be patient. Very patient. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Squizzy Taylor Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Awesome, I’m in Australia! Finally aftermarket close to home!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't stress boys, Our Lockdown ends this Thursday at midnight and international flights are set to resume with NO quarantine for 2xVacc'd passengers - meaning flights to and from OZ are back baby- so expect the time for parcels to drop dramatically and start getting back to normal. And remember, that despite nearly 2 years of this pandemic and sending 100s of parcels worldwide, not one person has not gotten their goodies.. NO LOST PARCELS :). and since we guarantee customer satisfaction you've got nothing to worry about. Cheers Jarrad Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I used fine lead wire instead of the rubber thread. I 50/50 scratchbuilt my CRL. Bone Fragments has a more detailed and accurate version hitting the market soon.

utley Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 anyone with the mechanical flaps set for the 1/48 Bone: can you explain to me if the piece circled in red is supposed to be cut off? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aircommando130 Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 That cockpit is awesome! As is your bomb bay! The Metallic Details B-1B nose radome came today. I want that extended flap/slat set too. Cheers....Ron Quote Link to post Share on other sites
utley Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Just got word those bricks on the flap tracks dont get cut, they get shaved to fit. In case anyone decides to get a set for themselves... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

utley Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 You mean Bone Fragments? He's around, but he's also in AU and they're in the middle of draconian measures with COVID. Be patient, and you can always join their FB page for updates and hes fairly active there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Specter1075 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 He also runs Bone Fragments as a hobby, so he goes through busy periods with real-life stuff. He has posted here on occasion, but Facebook is definitely the better way to go. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers...Ron Hey Ron, Not closed down, just shut for the holidays and continued pandemic- crazy here - for example logistics & supply chain shut downs mean no resin - and I'm an Ambulance paramedic and we are slammed thanks to Omicron so almost no time for BF stuff - But I am working on (slowly 😞 ) an e-commerce site for ordering to make everyone's life easier. Also the CRLs are finished and just need packing into sets now -instructional video still to do. So hold tight - good things coming. Also sorry for not replying to your email - Just found it as it came in Dec 25th here and honestly I was not on email for the holiday week and after hundreds of emails piled up I didn't get chance to go back thru all. As said here PM on FB is a good idea if you dont hear back from and email. I'll reply to your email too. Cheers JB Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers JB In all honesty given the situation in Australia I think we are all greatful that you dont give up on making it all a reality one day in the future. Ive ordered things from Australian suppliers only to get a full refund with an email explaining that they have the items in stock but they cant send them to me in the UK, or they are not in stock and they have no idea when they will be in stock again... Never give up. please.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
