So to prevent horse shoe sag I have decided to pin the mounting points |
Drill hole |
Glue in brass rod |
Cut |
Add final dab of glue to the end and you are done |
Hey lets pin other stuff so I can disassemble the model if needed. Just in case I want to add electrics later or change a light bulb. Drill hole in bee hive element 1 |
Bee hive element 1 bolted into position. next the cargo part will be installed and a corresponding hole drilled there. Next a rod will be glued in. Sorry forgot to take photos but I am sure you will see it during the build process |
The backs of the side engine turkey feathers are sanded and ground ot using a dremel tool and a sanding drum |
Close up. It looks like a butter cup |
Front side is also cleaned up of flash and stuff |
So far the weight of the main body, horse shoe, 3 bee hive elements and 2 side engines is 724g |
