Don Coe 9 Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 A big THANK YOU to those who braved the snow last night to hear me rabbit on about the Pup. When I can master the image posting procedure I'll keep you up to date on the build. Perhaps Moderator Jimbo would phone me to run through the actions? Kind regards to all. Don Coe.

Don Coe 9 Posted March 21, 2006 Author Share Posted March 21, 2006 Hi Fellers! Just back from a short holiday in France and glad to get back to the workshop and the Pup. Here are some shots of the front end showing the cartridge link shute from the Lewis M/G. This is from block balsa clad with litho plate, rubbed down on the finest wet & dry I could find then buffed a little with Solvol Autosol. I've completed and fixed the two carb air intake tubes. They're from brass tube cleaned thoroughly then tinned with cored solder , a blowlamp then quickly wired with the old moleskin pad. This buffs up nicely with a yellow duster. That's all for now. I await delivery from the foundry of the bronze cast air intake ducts then I detail the dummy Le Rhone a little. See yer.

Her Klunk 0 Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 The detail on you plane is amazing... you put my build skills to shame. I have decided to spend a bit more time on working to improve the presentation of my models.... Link to post Share on other sites
Don Coe 9 Posted March 24, 2006 Author Share Posted March 24, 2006 I seem to be having trouble posting so this is a tryout! Link to post Share on other sites
Don Coe 9 Posted March 24, 2006 Author Share Posted March 24, 2006 Well - that was OK now for an upload! Looks like we have a problem re image uploads! Link to post Share on other sites
Darren 0 Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Don - I've just uploaded a couple of pictures in the Southern Model Airshow section. Can you send me a PM with details of your problems and I'll look into it. Link to post Share on other sites
Don Coe 9 Posted March 25, 2006 Author Share Posted March 25, 2006 Thanks Darren. I will do so on return from Saturday shopping trip!!!!!! Regards, Don Link to post Share on other sites

Don Coe 9 Posted March 31, 2006 Author Share Posted March 31, 2006 For those who didn't get a look at the cast intakes ducts for the Le Rhone last night at the Portcullis Club - here's one I've polished Darren - This is the result of my trying to upload from PhotoBucket! http:// Link to post Share on other sites
Darren 0 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Don, Don't know why that isn't working but I'm not going to have any time to look into it over the next couple of weeks, you'll just have to use the standard attachment method instead. Link to post Share on other sites
Don Coe 9 Posted March 31, 2006 Author Share Posted March 31, 2006 Thanks Darren, I quite understand but what is the standard attachment method? Gary told me that the Photbucket way was the way to go! No hurry. Regards, Don Link to post Share on other sites
Darren 0 Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 When you make a post, at the bottom of the form there is an 'add an attachment' section, browse for your file, add a comment and click the add attachment button. You can add as many as you like but the images must be no bigger than 640x480. Perhaps Gary can shed some light on the photobucket issue. Link to post Share on other sites
