RE: Sig 1/4 J3 Kit converted to PA-18 Super Cub (Build)

Looks great. I just finished the jury struts on mine and I am doing the final prep for covering. I used screws on mine. I like the looks of it even though it is not very scale. Does anybody know...

RE: Sig 1/4scale C/W Cub build

RE: Sig 1/4scale C/W Cub build

I went to hobby lobby and found some small brass hinges that work great for me. I had to inlay them in, but they work great and all you can see is the small barrel. Here is how it turned out.

RE: Sig 1/4scale C/W Cub build

I don't know if it will help anybody anymore, but for the landing gear bolts that go into the fuse, I had the same issue with the outside ones being very close to the sides of the fuse. They...

Thanks for those pics. That gives me an idea of how it works at the fuse. Can't wait for the details on the rest of the attachment points and construction.

RE: Sig 1/4 J3 Kit converted to PA-18 Super Cub (Build)

I see you are using the 3/4" and 5/8" for the long struts. What size will you be using for the smaller struts that go straight up to the wing? Also, do you just flatten out the ends to fit over the...

RE: Vess Balance Ring, Anygood?

TOM and pe bring up some good points. They are not needed to do the job. It is just another way to achieve the same end result. To the Original Poster, yes they do work. I use it and it works...
