Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

[AJ Sun]

I have bought a Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub kit from Don at Rcaiir.com. Don primarily sells classic pattern plane kits (I have bought a few of those) but he sells a few giant scale kits as well. Looks to be a nice kit. Very smooth laser cutting.

I paid him close to.950.00 for a Champ kit still have not got it. Just excuses after excuses but no kit as promised over a year ago.

I hate that, so sorry to hear. Don and I worked together on a couple of classic pattern kits years ago. But even I've learned no way would I order a kit from him again.

Some screws for the windows area. They may be too small, awaiting a double zero and triple zero screwdriver set.

Look like little ants in your hand, found them an Ebay and bought a selection, who knows?

Thanks for the tip.

Go to the classic pattern forum and ask. Don usually replies there.

Testing the micro screws. I might need m1x3 vs m1x2 length. I think I have the drill bit size figured out though.

Drilling holes with my Albrecht bump chuck.

Not scale but how else can I attach plastic windows to steel tubing or wood dowel?
