    Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

    I was wondering about that. I have the little 00-90 wrench/nut driver in several of my shopping carts. Nobody can fill the complete order at the moment. Still looking around.

    Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

    Got a few small things done today. I found out 00-90 screws and bolts are an absolute pain to order. I want Phillips head, hex head, hex nuts and at least 2 lengths. No one has everything. Door hinge work here.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Getting low on wing bolts. I buy these thumb screw knobs from McMaster Carr. A piece of 3/8" tubing keeps the nylon bolt from snapping while they are pressed into the knob.

    Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

    Amazing. Called Sherline today to order some mill parts (bent y axis lead screw, misc) and ended up talking in depth with tech support person about mill upgrades. Turns out he is building a Nelitz Cub as well and we ended up talking for over an hour. I have a new friend!!!

    Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

    Way too big (troublesome) of a boot. Eliminated the scale 2 piece design and trying something close in a 1 piece design.

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    I found a 14" Jet bandsaw a few years ago on Craigslist. Riser block, locking floor cart, extra blades and several other extras. Now I need a competent metal bandsaw. Currently using a Dewalt portable bandsaw.

    That would work. But I would need to be 300' in front of the mill. Tony, sorry for the thread drift.
