    Spinner Thoughts

    Thanks for the input guys. @emtp275 has one that he's going to send me a picture of that he'll sell me at a good deal. If I don't buy it, I think I'll order a Nolimitz 5" Ultimate in white fiberglass. I'm going to paint it anyway so the fiberglass should work great.

    Glassing and Painting techniques

    The glassed parts will get primed with two light coats of Nason 421-19 primer and then sanded till most of the primer is gone. The goal is to get it as lite as possible, but still make sure all the weave and grain is gone. And yes a high quality finish is the ultimate goal. The airplane is a...

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

    So, what do you do at your body shop at 4 pm on a Friday before a holiday weekend when all your work is done and your bored? Make some rediculously heavy wheel chocks to screw to the plywood in your truck for hauling airplanes that's what.

    I didn't get anything done last night other than unmasking the canopy.

    Giant Scale RC Why do this? Seriously??

    I've always needed something to keep my mind off the world and to help keep me sane. It gives me something to look forward to when my weeks in the toilet at work or the family is driving me nuts.

    3D EMHW 2.15 Ultimate

    On Terryscustom's suggestion I tried lightweight all purpose joint compound. So far I like it a lot. The stuff I have is Sheetrock brand. It seems to go on better than a lot of the balsa fillers and things I've used in the past, plus it sands easy and smooth. It's pretty easy to tell when it's...

    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    Tonight I got the canopy glued on. Next I'm going to fill the joint where the canopy meets the hatch so it's a nice smooth radius.

    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    Yesterday I took the hatch to work with me to spray a little black in the cockpit before I installed the pilot and instrument panel. I was going to mark where the canopy went before hand so I could mask it, but of course I forgot. So I just sprayed the whole area, then when I got home I marked...

    Joe Nall 2016 = QUIET!!!

    It was all a joke meant to lighten the vibe of the thread, not to be taken seriously in any way.

    Will drilling a hole in carbon tubes weaken them?

    Yeah on mine they were only about 3/4" from the end and 3mm I believe. I've slept a few times since then and I never take them off so I don't remember.

    The BS that went on at NALL on Friday Night

    If nothing else this thread has reinforced the fact that that kind of bad behavior wont be tolerated by TT or the people here. If you see that kind of a$$hat behavior, ask them to stop, if you don't feel comfortable with that, or they wont stop, find someone in authority and tell them. That kind...
