Thank you so much for your feedback, you find always so nice words for my work
Andreas, what should I tell you in such workshop? That metal things are not a big deal.
You need a thin brass foil (found a set long ago on ebay), small drills and some needle files (different profiles are helpful). The problem is more to know what to do, so good sources of pictures or drawings are needed. If I need more than one part it is easier to solder some foils together and do the parts at ones. At the end separate the parts again with iron.
The more modern way would be to create a drawing on computer and get PE from it
SuspensionToday I have only a small update.
I tried different things for the rubber cords for the suspension. I tried some threads, lead wire (wanted to paint it), but at the end I used gray stretched sprue. Was not so easy to contrive it into the backward holder!
You liked the wood so much, so I decided to replace the other struts to, here the four in the middle.
For the holder between the half axles (in the middle) I added a plate from below and four "bolts" (0,33mm nickel silver)
Also the four outer struts are done and plug in without glue, the brass pins hold them, so you get a impression of the whole plane.
Still a lot of things on the todo list, not much progress and the weekend is gone
Cheers,
Frank
