Crew,
I am looking for an ARII 1/144 RA-5C canopy to replace or use to make a mold for replacement of my canopy that was damaged. My search on line has been unproductive, but if anyone can provide a compass course for finding this item or a replacement kit, I would be deeply appreciative.
Look forward to seeing every one on the 18th.
Regards to all.
I think that would be a hard kit to find a replacement for. Have you tried Ebay to see if the kit is available there?

Tried ebay and several other online hits - either item sold or the hit was on just ARII not an ARII RA-5c. Was hoping maybe someone in the club might know a location or have one in the stash.
Guess this goes back in the box for a while.
Regards,
I think I have one, but I would first have to find it, which may be no easy task since a lot of my stash is in boxes on the third floor and not particularly easy to get to. I will take a look, though.
Would you make a plaster-of-paris mold or something from the canopy that you could use as a heat-smash or vac-form male mold?
Thanks,
Lee G.
Lee,
Thanks for the offer - have just found one on eBay, so no need for the long search, especially in this hot weather.
I DO want to use the kit canopy to make a replacement for my current kit. Any one who can teach me how to do this using either of your methods or some other has a VERY eager and willing student awaiting training.
Look forward to seeing you Sunday.
Regards.
