Re: Barry's C-140 JetStar
The first, and essential, step with resin is a good washing up to remove mold release agents.
Engine pods....pinholes all around the intakes
Of course its gonna be fun Dirk
fits where it touches eh?

Glad to see you tie your hair back, though worried about the diapers you are wearing is it the resin dust that does it to you?

Re: Barry's C-140 JetStar
I see that Anigrand are consistent in their QA of resin parts - great subject list but sometimes so much work...

Well Bromo...It's just a little filler here, a little sanding there....much like I'm doing with the Airfix Beagle Basset.

Oops, Slipped to the bottom of the page. Gotta keep up!
Clear resin windows fit very snugly in place. No trimming necessary, sealed around the edges with super glue.
Passenger seats installed
Cockpit
dry fitting shows a gap...I filled it with a sliver of plastic.
Fuselage glued up and ready for filler all round the seams.

Re: Barry's C-140 JetStar
Am I right in thinking this is not a beginners kit?
You guys who work in resin have all my admiration, I have never been brave enough to attempt one (slight lie I started the airwaves skeeter a long time ago but that was only one chunk of resin)
The amount of work and the cost always puts me off.
