Hi Mumbles,
your build is looking amazing, its really coming together! A Jolly Rogers paint scheme would look epic, the yellow and black has always been a favourite of mine.
Regarding plans, a while back i free-trialed Sketch-Up and made some .step files of your 3D model, mainly the structural ribs and the pilots front console. (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1MiMN16Nzrb-pC20SYqPS2N5epRWuT_Eq?usp=sharing for anyone interested). You mentioned updated plans though, id really appreciate if you shared those
A dedicated website with plans and build logs would be really cool. Having the ribs CNC-cut i think i can manage, but that canopy frame looks like something above my abysmal carpenting skills xD.
Seeing your progress really gives me hope that i too can make this dream come true. Once i start out ill be sure to post some pics here. The only thing im missing right now is space
Cheers,
Elo
