If so , it looks like a vacu-form with a large flange to cut off.

Canute replied to CDW's topic in Non-ship/categorised builds
All I could say is amen to Steinbeck's quote. Looking forward to the outcome of this build. It should be a beauty. -

Beautiful bike, Craig. 👍 And I'm in that camp on building. -
Barncave Shipyard by mbp521 - Scale 1:1
Canute replied to mbp521's topic in Non-ship/categorised builds
Love the space. Having owned a horse barn/stable, like Marks asks: HVAC for your man cave? Straw is pervasive and you don't need it spoiling a paint job. I imagine Northwest Texas gets a wee bit toasty come summer, like San Antone does. -

That's for sure. -
One of my uncles had one of these in silver. We called it the Silver Bullet, Lone Ranger fans that we were.😄

Martin B-26B Marauder by CDW - FINISHED - Airfix - 1:72 Scale
Canute replied to CDW's topic in Non-ship/categorised builds
One a day in Tampa Bay, as the old saw went. McDill was the training base for the B-26 in WWII. The original wing was on the small side, meaning it had higher landing speeds. And the unlovely nickname of the Flying Prostitute, since it had no visible means of support. I built a model of Flak Bait, in 1/72 scale, eons back. The original is in the Smithsonian, I believe. How are these newer ICM kits? I picked up some Soviet era jets and they were a bear to build. Lack of locating pins, short shot parts.

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
