Thanks, but the Colibri presents more about Quick Extender Pro but no real difficulties beyond the size of the parts as far as constructing it goes. The real question is how well it will run with metal parts vs. wood. Are you planning to finish your small scale plastic version? I considered reducing the size myself but wasn't sure I could find the proper shoulder heim joints.
Ian Electrodeposited copper over wax was used to form the inlet manifolds and water jackets of several engines during the 'Great War'. To me it was yet another unknow technique for which I am not equipped. I had done some small scale lost wax castings before and had some basic equipment. Better the devil etc.
Great stand for a Fantastic Engine Nice flight case too - but here I can't help myself, from my line of work nowadays, as I'm in the music business - the case should be filled with foam, to make sure that it doesn't rattle inside the box (you probably thought of this already).I can think of two ways to do this - either the "easy way" as in a former thread here (or was it HMEM ) - wrap the engine in plastic film, and "cast" the foam around it, or get a full block of the stuff and "cut the engine out of it" and glue the rest into the case. The thread was about making drawers for tools - I think it was Achim - but I might remember this wrong ....The last is apparently also easy with the right tools. The father of my Boss makes high quality flight cases and he spend a few thousand Pounds on the tool to do so .....Nice to see you back here with more projects Tug Best wishesPer
