Has anyone printed/flown the SU-29?

Thanks GG, will pick some up.

Thanks for all the feedback. Found some at 3.5mm diameter skewers in the garden shed and sanded down to 3mm and they fit nicely. What size rubbers bands do I use and where can I get them from?

GG, I have some but they are 2.5mm and a bit sloppy. Will try some heat shrink to build up thickness. Thanks for your response.

Zero model printers, I have printed the Zero and looking to the last few bits to finish it. The holes for the pins that go through the fuselage ( for wing rubber bands) are 3mm. Am having difficulty getting 3mm carbon fiber rods or timber dowels, can get 4mm carbon fiber and wooden dowels. Does anyone know if its possible to ream out the 3mm holes in the fuselage to 4mm? I have looked at the 3d print files for “A6M2 fuselage1” and can’t really tell if there’s enough wall thickness in the fuselage hole wall to ream it out successfully.

I am available and keen to fly if Sunday is a goer.
