Juicehead Posted April 17, 2013 Posted April 17, 2013 100% CNC Cut... So... Many... Pieces... I do not envy those who had to cut this out by hand, but I am sure it is well worth the payoff... More pics to come...

Juicehead Posted April 18, 2013 Author Posted April 18, 2013 All the pieces... Gonna be a busy weekend! Did you guys use a rattlecan for paint or latex?
Juicehead Posted April 24, 2013 Author Posted April 24, 2013 A bit of finishing items to take care of... Mounting Warthog HOTAS today... I am at about 20 hours & counting on this project.
MacFevre Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Looking sharp! Like what you've done with the stick mount. So far, I have only used a grey rattle-can primer as I'm not sure where to source the actual color. I figure once it gets warmer, I can paint with correct color, but still got plenty of time for that.

It dries really fast and you don't have to seal the wood which is nice. I used cheap Glidden indoor latex paint. Grainite Black & Seal Gray (Flat)
XRay_Specs Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Mate, I don't know whether to congratulate you or throttle you... Congratulate I guess! Seeing you finish yours so quickly brings a tear to my eye. I just finished mine as well, have a look if you're interested: http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/3773478/XRay_s_Pit#Post3773478
