Hi all I"ve decided on my next WW1 Aircraft project I'll be building Rodens 32nd Spad VII C.I but I'd really like to incorporate the full 3 part Eduard Etch set into the build. I know the set is no longer in production but if someone could possibly help me locate one or even let one of their sets go to me I'd be much obliged ?

Part makes an extensive set for that kit. $30US from Jadar, lots in stock. I find their sets a bit fiddly but very detailed.

www.jadarhobby.pl I have used them for years. If you create an account and youre not in the EU the prices are lower. Shipping on p/e is light and the service/price is good.

i dont remember where but i saw one for sale somewhere not too long ago. have you checked all the online hobby shops? i have the eduard and the part spad vii pe, both are quite nice but each has things the other doesnt. i think the part etch set is more extensive in that it even has the sheet metal panels for the upper cowl decking replicated as well as the louved chin panel. i bought the part set 5-6 months ago and the eduard bout a year. i would check around at the web stores. i got my eduard from squadron.

and bam first place i looked squadron has it in stock

Sean,
Wait until you've got it in hand and you'll be really impressed and scared at the same time. Now the Part set is even more impressive but 10 times as scary . Looking forward to seeing your SPAD VII underway my friend.

Have an etchmate or a good steel straight edge etc and you will be fine. Just be patient and the results will be slick!!!
Steve

I endevour to use as much of the set as
I possibly can. But my main focus will be
on the areas of the model which are visible,
cant see the point in adding detail to areas
that can't be seen!

try using future or another clear coat to stick on your parts. ca drys so quick as soon as you place it its stuck. if you want to adjust you are s.o.l. the future allows you to adjust and is self leveling so theres no puddle. if you put too much on take a paper napkin and wick the excess away. after it drys i spray another finish clear coat to set it permanently. otherwise it is poss to flake off. ever since i started using future to glue on my pe bits i am very happy with the look. when i used ca as the instuctions suggest i ended up having slightly crooked parts or ca crust ooze peeking out around the edges sometimes. just a tip.

Great tip thankyou
