You will be one of the first to know Jason:smilewink:

Not a problem Chris, Whenever your ready. Look forward to it.

Excellent work Jim. Really impressive:thumbup:

UFC is so close now, we had some issues with good illumination, which has been solved. First production one is being made as we speak.

Thanks Guys. I will post pics of the right side soon.

Left console panels complete Here is all the left console panels, I will post pics of the separate Aux Lighting and Fuel panels frame later.

First pics of left console This is a work in progress. Below you can see the frame then the frame with a few panels just sat in it.

CDU :shocking::shocking: Panel only at the moment, still finalising the UFC. My electronics chap went AWOL for two weeks.

Image is there for me, can anybody else see it?

full left console I will be making the left console (see image below) tomorrow. I will post pics once completed(probably Saturday before I finish). All panels will be screwed to frames and each panel set screwed together. No switches or electronics initially. Prices available once I work out the time taken to make first one.

Nice work. Love the detailing. Excellent:thumbup:

Updated SAS Panel Reverse of panel

I could do that at the same time, to be honest I never thought of that. it would add say a pound to each clear. but it would save trying to do it afterwards. Glider

update sas Updated drawing of the SAS panel. What a pillock I can be.

Yes I am working on these over the next few days, just waiting for a delivery of material. because I am an idiot!!!! They are looking great, what are you edge painting?

They are generally customised for each person, I do not cut any holes for LEDs initially as there are different ways to illuminate. But all the panels can be tailored to the individual. Glider

a few more panels sets Here are a few more

Caution Panel Here are some pics of the caution panel that has been requested.

Excellent, well done:thumbup: Nice to see one lit up. If you want, next time tell me were you want the holes and i will cut them for you FOC.

Vid Heres another quick Video of another batch of panels being engraved.

Excellent, Well Done:thumbup:.

Hi Nobrot, PM answered, I would say be careful with EL sheets, some manufactuers give them a life of 100 hrs at full illumination. You can get better ones but as is always the case you get what you pay for. I agree with agrasyuk, use LED's if possible the clear panel can be customized for you to accomodate any type of installation, the spacer is cut out only were illumination is required. Hope this helps Glider

Hi It has been suggested to me by PM that I should not say "hyper accurate" about my panels. Ok lets put it this way they are a "very close representation" of actual panels. Glider

Great work :thumbup: Really coming along well, nice bit of woodwork. Well done MTFdarks Dad :megalol:

Sounds a good idea, it all depends on how many people want them of course. Everyone I have sold to want hyper accurate but i'm sure there are people out there who would like a generic cockpit. Glider
