5ft Falcon - dsp5500 - 03-29-2015
Going to put Andre's, Josh's and Stu's RnD on the 5ft falcon to good use.
Made a start on the acrylic domes with the jig needed to blow mould them.

Awesome, looking forward to this. Acrylic is a bugger to form. Great looking shop by the way. Wish I could keep mine so neat, LOL. Cheers,

I love stuff like this. Making your own tools for the job. It's one of my favorite parts. Sometimes it's more fun than the actual model. Good luck, I can't wait to see the finished dome. If you can, make a video when you form it. It will be cool to see it. Cheers,

Acrylic is getting cut and pre drilled.
Almost ready for the first prototype.
