Great job Wayne, and the pic of the fire extinguisher is really useful Guttorm.
Darn, going to have to make some labels for fire extinguishers now..........
BTW, what's the approximate length of the extinguisher bottle?

 

[Junkers88A1]

its 30cm long decals for that as well..hehe
that is cool

 

[Wayne Little]

Thanks Guttorm...will have a crack at it...

 

[Wayne Little]

Ok, here is stage 1 spent over an hour cutting and shaping then drilling a hole in the end attaching a short piece of brass rod, then supergluing a handle on the top then shaping a carry handle for the side and gluing that in place.

Drilled a hole in the bottom so i could use a tooth pick to hold the tiny bl**dy thing!

Guttorm, in relation to the handle, where does the hose actually attach in relation to the handle?

The hose I take it loops down the side of the extinguisher and is Black?

 

[B-17engineer]

That's rather insane, but nonetheless great!!!!

 

[Junkers88A1]

that i agree on ..that is just insane.. coooooool ! and nice work. a bit jealous here..hehe

and i think you are now the only person that has made this canopy the way it should be.. i used my superior skills on paint shop to show how the hose goes.. hehe
it should be on the oposite side of the handle..on this picture its a bit to much on the side

are you planning on making the curtians as well in the canopy ?

this will be a show stopper when its done

 

[Wayne Little]

Thanks Guttorm, Yes I am now considering the curtains..!

 

[Junkers88A1]

you know they are green on one side and white on the other.. have you glued the front nose on ? as it is a curtain in that one also.. hehe
i sure do give you some extra work..lol

on this picture one can see a black steel bar on the top.. it should hold roll with a curtain..folds up by spring..like the old bedroom curtains

 

[B-17engineer]

Well we may have a 100% historically accurate build!

 

[Airframes]

Bl**dy nice work there Wayne, and more good info Guttorm!
Fire extinguisher label decals are on the list to do......

 

[Junkers88A1]

sounds great. looking forward to see moer of this build..and how he pulls thru with the curtains..but when i see what he does with a part like the fire exstingusher i am sure he will make those just as awsome

if you are going to make a decal you might need this..hehe
better picture of it

 

[Airframes]

Thanks Mr.G. Already made the art work - just typed in the data text for the labels and then adjusted for layout etc, expecting what would happen when reduced to approximately 3.75mm tall. Yep - lines of dots! They look reasonable though - just hope they'll hold resolution and density when printed onto decal sheet. Should have them, and the data plates, ready to mail by mid-week, but I'll need your full postal address please. Just waiting to hear from Wayne regarding some other decals he wanted.

 

[vikingBerserker]

That does it, I'm taking up basket weaving instead......

 

[Junkers88A1]

airframes..i have some more decals i need made also..will get back to you on that asap pal

GF

Haven't fitted the nose canopy yet...and I recall the two curtain colours of white and green.

The extinguisher is now Red with a black handle, hose to be added soon...and now needs some decals, no rush Terry, honest!

 

[Airframes]

No problem, I'm due at the hospital tomorrow to have the socket fitted to my rear end -- where the broom locks into place!!
Should have the decals in the mail by mid-week - if Mr.G. gets back to me quick enough, so I can print all at one time.
