Nice work Jack. Don't rush if you don't have to just to get it finished.

What Terry said....do it right !

 

[T Bolt Jr]

Thanks everyone it is good to be back, and thanks Wayne and Terry for the advice.

Today I worked on my MiG. I built the wings and my dad helped me put lead in so it would balance nose gear. After dinner I am going to glue fuselage.

There is no way that bird will be a tail sitter with that big hung of slag sitting up front. Looking good so far.

[T Bolt]

It's looking good Jack, now get back to work!!!

 

[B-17engineer]

Hey Jack just read about your dads sabotage attempt, I hate when that happens!

 

[Wurger]

With all here.

 

[T Bolt Jr]

Thanks I am glad you like my model.

Very cool, what's the blue stuff you used with the weight?

I used some stuff my dad gave me. Silicone Gasket Maker from a auto part store.

In the last week I put the body together, I put the wings together, I put the wings and tail on the body. I panted the wheels yesterday after my dad showed me how to put them on toothpicks.

Today I panted the plane silver with a spray can, and my dad lost the landing gear leg so he made me another one. Tonight I am going to do the decals.

 

[Catch22]

Looks good Jack!

 

[B-17engineer]

Agreed nice Jack!

 

[vikingBerserker]

Very nice Jack! Great save by pappa T-Bolt (even though he lost it )

 

[T Bolt Jr]

Dad found the leg so we don't need the one he made. I finished the decals.

 

[Catch22]

Nice work Jack! Don't see many DDR planes.

Nice work Jack, it looks good and you did a great job with the metallic finish.
