Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

[TonyHallo]

I would think you would use tweezers to start the nut and go from there. At .046" diameter that would work out to .0138 full scale or #6 screw, can't image where # 6 screws would be used other than the dash? The door lugs are drilled at .190" so a No.1 screw would be the right size, as a matter of fact .190" is the smallest hole shown on the lug drawing. Where are you using the 00-90 screws?

Lets see. I need screws, lag/lug bolts for scale appearance on aluminum wing shrouding at fuse connection area, engine cowling, dash screws, tiny little screws for foot pedal controls, seat mounting, etc. Some 3/4" 1-72 (?) bolts for some scale bits and pieces.

So #1 screws in the dashboard?

Framed up the lower door section. Don't normally use CA glue but here it was needed. Light weight balsa was jumping all over the place.

Looking forward to seeing your door latch system.

Here are areas of where I need screws, photos are from other build threads........

The wing on the Champ has the same cord as the Cub, I used #0 screws. They appear to be much smaller than the ones in the photo you posted.
The 00-90 would be the right size for the dash and other parts inside the cabin.

You are correct Tony, these are way too big...

Cut, tapped, bent, sanded and filed a semi scale handle. Not round like the real one but similar. And 30 minutes of work so no big deal.

Sorry for the big photos. Still can't figure out how to make them medium size.
