JensWillkommen Thomas, ich hoffe ich kann in der kurzen Zeit die wichtigsten Sachen zeigen, mehr als 3 Wochen habe ich für den Bau nicht geplant 😉

Thomas Bischoffnur drei Wochen! Das würde mir knapp mal reichen die Schachtel zu öffnen 🙂

JensWelcome Igor and Björn 🙂
Hello Thomas, I can set such a time limit because I have no other obligations, at almost 40 degrees in the shade then the 23 degrees at the workbench are an invitation, tomorrow I get my favorite again under the sec adhesive, Tamiya, then should it really run like warm cheese 🙂

JensIn a construction report, a colleague called the Trumpeter Swordfish a Tamiya copy in 1:32,
in the plastic parts probably right, as far as the tension but far from it
Spreading a bit of EZ Line between the surfaces is one thing, putting such etched parts between the points on voltage is a bit different
and in terms of time, not to be underestimated
the pictures below cost me the whole night from 22.00 to 7.20
1. The pick-up points of the struts are designed either too flat or the connections for the struts clearly too thick ..., but every tenth of the struts changed, also change the geometry of the surfaces to each other, is extreme in the outer struts, the result, you can really fit the etched parts,
but then you have not yet the surfaces on the fuselage, and there complain the colleagues because of the stability (I'm just surprised 😄)
The etched parts look really hard when you cut them, as if those made by Dragon 8o, you want to then position them are the soft as lead wire,
To straighten up these deformations and still keep those things tidy takes a bit of patience and a lot of time
My winners were almost there on the limit and still missing a lot of clamping plates .....
Tool for cutting, a goldsmith's metal shears and smoothing the board residues the Proxxon cutting disc
for gluing Pattafix sec. Glue and! Plastic remnants dissolved in Tamiya speed glue are a real help in aligning and cutting parts

JensTime 2 pictures to the tension with the Trumpeter parts (PE 4 and PE😎 and probably also a clear sign that the "hangers" after completion are not only due to their own weight
an etched part with 3 fixed points, the shorter part fits without any corners, the longer part is then definitely too long
to cut the armor steel is still going on, but then in the mm areas to bend clean could with home remedies something the precision neglect

JensThank you friends for the words 🙂 Unfortunately, the Swordfish has a forced break at the moment, I have taken an Airfix Kit of Walrus for the workbench 😄, also very convincing what Airfix delivers there 👍

JensHello Philppe, welcome to board, unfortunately on the home straight, now finally, after 3 hours looking for the landing lights, after all, a part of 3 x 4 mm, I found him in a drawer, jumped from the tweezers and through the small opening of the Drawer disappeared: D, but so I have space on the workbench again 😄, it was slowly getting closer .... when the setter dried the first pictures in uniform 🙂

Peter HardyStay away from me Jens, I about to start the Bismarck and I don't want any Swordfish anywhere near it!

Jensohhh Peter, build the HMS Hood 🙂 🙂 🙂 , it is probably the same embarrassing story as that of the Bismark, a lot of gray color get both 😄
I wanted to build another Cataline, so the Hod would be more suitable 😄 the Walrus Mk I already made it into the album 😉

JensThanks Clifford, I'm glad if the Swordfish you like, then I have not done much wrong 🙂 Thank you 🙂
@ Peter, for me, every ship would have started too late, even with 4 pensions ih would not get it done 😉
