All sorted now….

And how good it is today to be able to get on without everyone in at work. So much has been achieved today. Will find out later on way home, if there are any Easter Eggs left (Marmite?) and perhaps a bottle of wine! But seriously, it is getting there. The castellation ring copies match up precisely with the blade we obtained in Switzerland and the copies of the latter have come out well too. The port air intake looks wonderful and the hub and spinner are off to be molded. Work now turns towards the canopy. But that can wait until Tuesday now! 🙂

Thank you. Shame is that half of each exhaust has to be discarded for each stack to fit between the L plates. Should have one side completed before we go home.

What an absolute work of art!. Fantastic to see how much hard work is being put into the project. Just out of curiosity, has a paint scheme been decided upon once the Emil is finished?.

Thank you again, and yes a scheme has been decided on by the owner and very nice it looks too. Painting should start next week. But nothing will be made public until the project is finished, I’m afraid.

Martin and team, perhaps if you build a Ju-87B or four it will help your case for Sir Ridley to secure your services? :eagerness:

Tempting and it has been discussed before, for sale to Museums abroad, but the Stuka is somewhat of a large aeroplane and without blueprints and accurate references might be a little offputting. But, we like making things for films and like challenges too (the White Bird, Lysander and the F-35s) so who knows what is going to happen next. We are getting enquiries almost every day now. I have 3 new quotes to work on today. And a new BoB film, well what a project that would be. Here’s to the future.

Best wishes to all,

Martin

Today, been working on the spinner and back plate. And the Hub has just come out of the mold. All looking good….

That is indeed the plug, but inside the moulds, is of course a metal framework as in any of our creations. Will try and take some photos to illustrate the point. Elevators are being created this afternoon. With all the fibreglassing going on, sounds from where I am sat, a troop of monkeys are having a shouting match in the hangar! Quieter in here with my head in the books!
