RE: Pfalz DIII resources -- Photos, Drawings, Plans, etc.

BobH, I see how you want to do it now, following full scale. I at first thought you wanted a strip with both sides of the holes and the lace that you would lay on your existing covering.

I would...

RE: Pfalz DIII resources -- Photos, Drawings, Plans, etc.

Those pesky little eyelet and cinches have been on my mind for a long time.
There are two ways of doing them. One is an all out scale eyelet punched into the fabric and cinched for true scale. The...

RE: Pfalz DIII resources -- Photos, Drawings, Plans, etc.

RE: Pfalz DIII resources -- Photos, Drawings, Plans, etc.

Trev, the "feet" you are talking about. Are they attached to the bottom of a full former? If so you will not be able to wrap the skin properly. They would work on half formers though.

So here's...

RE: Pfalz DIII resources -- Photos, Drawings, Plans, etc.

I've always liked the looks of the DIII with it's sharp point tail and lower wing. I think it is because it was my first plastic model I got for christmas when I was a kid. I like seeing the guns...

RE: Pfalz DIII resources -- Photos, Drawings, Plans, etc.

I want to do the Pfalz DIII so I will...

RE: Pfalz DIII resources -- Photos, Drawings, Plans, etc.

I love the Pfalz DIII too. I have a set of 1/6 scale plans for the DIIIa designed by Alan Spievack. They do look good with lots of scale details. I don't know how accurate they...
