The pix are dark but they give enough detail to show some mighty fine craftsmanship. You're building skills are up there my friend.

Friend,

Unfortunately, I have not mastered the technique of photography too, and am a bit muddled with the adjustment of machinery, but the day estva also very bad, rainy and dark.

So it goes, post better pictures and thanks for the compliments. I tried to pass an email to Clancy, the only address I have, returned with error - clancyarnold@juno.com - you know you're okay with it?

Hugs

Friends,

These photos are from the cutting wheel of the rear wheel of the Yak, even without finishing their due, only the cuts in order to see how it is being made.

When ready, I'll post other pictures.

Friends,

These are photos of the structure of cokpit with square brass tube 1 / 4 x 1 / 4. I used the technique of heating and cooling for the metal is malleable, made some cuts in local curves to be able to swing better and then I'm filled with tin solder to fix the positions.

After that, I use a rasp and another thinner to remove excess and to the finish. Hope you like it to colleagues.

Hugs and pictures until the next.

It's been a very busy summer and I've neglected to come here and see how you are doing with the Yak. The tailwheel and retracts are beautiful.
You are doing really fine work. Thankyou for sharing with us.

Frank,

I'm happy with her words and more to be able to share this project with colleagues. I have other projects together, but are stopped because I want to finish this plane until November now, because we have a championship here and I want to place it will show, even without flying.

Soon I'll be getting the missing pieces in order to finish the rest.

Hugs

There is always a deadline isn't there?

Yes, and how this hinders the deadline of this life ...

I agree.........I've spent the last two weeks obsessing with a model. A lot of necessary life things have been put off to allow the time to finish the plane. I'm nuts.
