Title: Mini Lathe for scribing
Post by: Anthony Leger on Sat 08/07/10 11:40 AM
Hi Guys,

Looking at how I'm going to scribe the round sections on the Flanker Stinger tail...I've built this gizmo to hold it and be able to spin the part with a stationary scriber I can move along the horizontal axis for the different areas. It seems to work, but consider an in progress tool. I guess you could use it for painting too.

btw... the panels on the tail are the Archer resin surface details.

...Tony
