Response to Excellent work
I got a bit un-well last December, nothing serious, mind, but it put me off my feed a bit.

The oil-cooler looks trickier than it is. The trick is to make one piece in heavier plastic that is a master, with the holes pierced in it, and of the proper width. The holes have to be spaced right, and it has to be the right width, but the piece can be way over-length. Duplicate this in the same heavier plastic, and glue lengths of rod in the holes. Cut a strip of 5 thousandths sheet the right width, line up with the master and piece the holes with a stout needle. Again, leave them over-length. Check them, and stack them, on the piece with the rods. When you start gluing them, use a strip of five thousandths to keep them separate. Once everything is fixed, file them down to then right lengths on either side of the rods.

I recently got an old Aeroclub Osprey I hope to get to before too long. Where is there an inter-war group build coming up?

HyperScale's Group Build Guidelines

The objective of this Group Build is to encourage as many modellers as possible to build their kits and share their progress via words and photos on this Forum.

You are welcome to post general construction tips or relevant reference information and photos to this Forum too.

This Group Build will feature Airfix, Frog and Matchbox kits.

  1. Build as many kits as you like

  2. Conversions, aftermarket and scratchbuilding are all permitted.

  3. Any markings are acceptable.

  4. Document your progress and do a write-up on your build - where did you have trouble, what improvements did you make, what markings did you choose and why? It would be GREAT if everyone would do a writeup and submit it to HyperScale as a Feature Article.
