It was a great day, Good to see the old boats out in such numbers.
Well done to Peter Webberley on setting it all up, and also winning the regatta.
Don’t forget the money for the take-off and landing fees!
They look just like the bought ones.
And you didn’t have to wait on the postage!
It’s certainly a completely different set of skills than the old days!
Now most of the work is in the design stage, and just let the printer do its thing.
Hope you are having a good time in Europe with Kermit
Yes Mike, the detail you can get is amazing,
Just messy stuff to play with.
After seeing the great fittings Mike has made for the opposition media boat ” Double Trouble” I thought it’s about time I did something for “Sinker Two”
Onto the computer and tried out a different 3D modelling software called “OnShape”. A few hours later I had some 3D drawings.
Got the Anycubic SLA printer ready with some black resin and a after a few more hours I had some parts to play with.
For the hatches I used some 1mm clear plastic covered with a dark window tint, and the bollards I taped out the hole in the bottom and glued in a 3mm stud.
Installed hatches using a laser cut plywood jig to align it with the depressions in the moulding.
And bow roller and bollards installed.
Next job will be the cabin windows.
That’s OK he can land in my back yard – no fees
Should be the ideal plane for Kermit’s new field
Might have to fit some floats to the wheelchair, just in case it rolls down the hill!
Heat detecting technology.
I had to edit out the bit before when you was inside your house.
I want to know how come you took off in a straight line both times, you can’t do that at the other field?
The view from the other side! (sorry about the heat haze)
I will keep an eye out tomorrow then
Will it land at my place?
Yes please!
What happened to the nice things you were going to say about me?
