    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I built this Giles 300 from Ohio RC plans, pretty sure the rights were owned by a company called ProModel when I built it. It was a very nice flying plane as I recall, no bad habits. The wings, stabilizer, rudder and turtle deck were all cut from foam rather the the built up design. It is no...

    Scale The Red Eagle rebooted

    So I assume you will make some sort of spacer to keep the wing spacing while removed, that's a great plan. Will you use airfoil shaped rods or round rods? The links below came to mind, I'm thinking the threaded end from the 1/4 scale turnbuckle drilled for a short piece of brass tubing and a...

    Mini lathe (and mill) discussion.

    Is that mic reading in mm? Again you will find many more uses for the mic, I am lost when I can't find my 0-1" mic and that's pretty often!

    Scale The Red Eagle rebooted

    Yes but you will need to hook up the linkage, depending on method you choose, this could make for a more difficult assembly.

    Mike Hurley Extra

    The Hurley Extra brings back some great memories. I built two back when the plane was featured in MA, flew one and sold the other in the bones. The one I flew was built with foam rib wings and the other was foam core per plans. The foam rib wings were 6 ounces lighter each than the foam core...

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    65 1/3, if I get tired I can stop until tomorrow, there's no schedule to comply with. I quit drinking beer so there is no other reason to stop working.

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    Seen a plastic surgeon today, he said to take it easy for two weeks so it looks like I'm on hold for awhile. I can't wait to saw the concrete and start hitting it with the 8 pound sledge. I figure that 6 ton of concrete and fill will be bucketed out of the basement, thankfully it is only 7...

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    Basically you dig up around the walls, in my case I plan to cut at 24" from wall, remove concrete and fill, drill weep holes in bottom of block, add drain channel to wall and footer, add gravel and internal drain pipe, add pit and pump. Hopefully the basement is dry!!!

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    I just started to water proofing my basement which is also the work shop. Moved all the kits and planes to the garage and have most of the power tools moved to the center of the floor. Broke up a small section of the floor to verify the project will work, while drilling weep holes at the...
