Jeff

I'd be curious if you can find some and if it works....

I tried that HVAC tape too, and yeah a bit thick, but I recently tried 'Chrome" tape from the automotive section of Canadian Tire and it is much much thinner and works very well for my applications.... and it seems I can 'burnish' it somewhat, I took my Exacto knife handle and gave it the old one - two and it resulted in acceptable results.... for me anyway... the stuff I got was for fixing 'chrome' on cars... it came in a roll about 2 inches wide and was about 7 bucks Canadian....

Well.................. their LOSS, our GAIN.....

no kidding eh?

Personally, I am shocked over you getting banned Maru..... you are the last person I thought would ever have any issue what so ever. In all our correspondence over the years, about my dad in India during the war, and your mom , I have never ever seen a hint of anything that you describe. I moved over here a while ago as well, due to a LOT of negative chit chat over silly stuff, that is non existent here. I echo all the other guys, and say , I am happy you are here and look forward to chatting and seeing your input on all sorts of posts..... Like Carl says, we are Characters

That's great as dogs are people too.... best of luck with him...

Gary, my Beagle had arthritis, and the doc advised us give her glucosimine ( spelling ) of the human kind, I got the capsules and opened two when she had food, and after a few days she was like a new pup... it is not the cure all, but it may give Kaiser some mild relief ............ it won't hurt him at all... whats to lose?

I echo everyone's assessment on your precise clean PE work, Carl, outstandingly good....

HA !!!!!!!!!!!!!! I recognize this Rooster well, it is out front of a Bar and Grille and obviously called The Black Rooster, in Castlegar British Columbia, about 25 miles from my place..... excellent beer and vittles https://blackroosterbarandgrill.com You guys ever get here we will go and the first round of good Canadian Beer is on me !

I can also tell you , Mike's resin bits are top drawer, his stuff is well done and fantastic.. he is a real good guy to deal with as well...

I heard the C 46 was a bit of a whore in a crosswind landing situation as well.... the tail being the culprit there... and the fat fuselage

Looks similar to a Condor...

Keep us folks posted, Carl.....some of us in the 'boonies' seem to fall behind sometimes..., I will be in for one or two as well.... and it was a real sad day when we lost Rick.... he was a great guy and had an awesome shop

and From Nelson B.C.

I love it when a plan comes together....... I got a swift text from Carl when the kits became available at SB, and I pulled the trigger and ordered the Sopwith Triplane , I should have ordered when it first came out ( my bad ) and low and behold it arrived today from SB in top condition and looking perfect.... I thank the guys at SB for their honesty with their pricing etc..... although the cost of shipping and money exchange damn near doubled the price, although nothing to do with SB, it was a great transaction as always with those guys... good job SB ! And thanks Carl for the heads up ! Jeff

More awesome generosity ! You guys make my day !

Sweet, now a NEW Warn winch 'just in case' you get into a pickle....

Ernie...................... YOU are the MOST generous man I have ever known.... you're one in a million.... a true Gent... very rare these days... my hat is off to you my friend

I know that feeling.................. every morning !

I 'think' I got a triplane..................... damn near pulled the trigger on a Camel too, but resisted at the last second... thanks again for the heads up on the triplane Carl !

I'll sit in as well, I'm a bit of a truck guy, so this will be most interesting.... Jeff

I'm going to try my hand at Aviattic's Blue Max movie Dr I , that might be fun.... looks cool, and I'm a HUGE Blue Max fan

I REALLY like this, such a nice change from the plethora of 109's and 190's............... VERY well done...

Master Class !

WOW ! that's excellent !!!!
