    Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

    Rain canceled my day at the airfield. Again. Got in another round of Poly Spray though. Good practice as the Poly Spray can be wiped clean with MEK if I screw up. Mental notes for the upcoming painting were forming right and left. I think I can build a large sized spray room under my deck...

    Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

    Scale BUSA Super Cub

    I’ve looked around for schemes but that was years ago. I’ve started looking again. I assumed Randolph Paint was Ranthane, looking now for Aerothane.

    Scale BUSA Super Cub

    Tony, a couple of questions. Poly Spray for a 1/3 scale looks to be 2-3 qts. At least. Then the Randolph paint quantities. I‘s quessing 2 qts per color/total of 4 but want to look around first.

    I inserted a random axle years ago and almost forgot about it. It would take a deep socket and ratchet to get it threaded in any further. I hesitate to solder something with my landing skills.........
