So any more progress


No but here's my 150cc yak I still need to complete. It was a beat up old airframe too. I am not happy with the stripes on the stripes on the fuse which I will need to correct and then paint the cowling!

Been working on the canopy. Tabs were all broke off but otherwise it was in pretty good shape minus the poor pilot inside.

Glued tabs back on. Taped and sanded old paint to get new paint to adhere. Cleaned re-taped and finally painted. Gotta wait for this to dry fill a small area wet sand to get one bug and a coupe small runs....

I previously cut the rudder hinges as I couldn't just remove the pins or pull the hinges. I cut them flush and was just going to rehing and use robarts. I couldn't live with the idea the old hinges were still in there so I cut them out and put new wood back in with gorilla glue.

When the glue sets razor plane and sanding block will be put to use.

I love the razor plane. One of my most satisfying tools :)
