    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    Seen a plastic surgeon today, he said to take it easy for two weeks so it looks like I'm on hold for awhile. I can't wait to saw the concrete and start hitting it with the 8 pound sledge. I figure that 6 ton of concrete and fill will be bucketed out of the basement, thankfully it is only 7...

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    Basically you dig up around the walls, in my case I plan to cut at 24" from wall, remove concrete and fill, drill weep holes in bottom of block, add drain channel to wall and footer, add gravel and internal drain pipe, add pit and pump. Hopefully the basement is dry!!!

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    I just started to water proofing my basement which is also the work shop. Moved all the kits and planes to the garage and have most of the power tools moved to the center of the floor. Broke up a small section of the floor to verify the project will work, while drilling weep holes at the...

    Scale 20cc Edge 540 Profile “The Glitter”

    Where did you order it from? The Toni Clark web site shows.35 sq mm, that's where I came up with the 28 gauge. I didn't see any other wire listed.

    I think a small piece of brass tube will do the job.

    Scale 20cc Edge 540 Profile “The Glitter”

    I do like that style of Robart horns. You do need to be careful of the clevis since the joint doesn't inner lock like the joints on DuBro and Sullivan clevises. The joint is shown below, just butts together rather than inner lock, I'm sure for this application they will be fine just don't...

    Sad news ..... SWB going out of business

    Maybe someone will buy the business and carry the torch but I suspect declining sales had something to do with it as well. The interest is waning in giant scale which is really sad.

    Mini lathe (and mill) discussion.

    More uses for the lathe, this is the airplane club's mower crankshaft. Had to polish the crank journal, 800 wet dry paper and WD40. Brought the mower to the house for spring oil change and found it was run low on oil before it was put away last season, had a slight knock, decided to open it up...
