Default RE: ESM FW D-9

ORIGINAL: mudflap31

Hi P47pilot,

I used the ESM retracts and wheels (aluminum ones) and just buttered them up a bit with plasticard and a few bolt heads. The valve is a 12ba brass threaded rod, decals (rub downs here) as part of a set by Flightline Graphics.

Muds

Thanks for the tip!

I got hold of scalewheels from http://www.glennis.com/germanwarbirdgallery.htm. Nice and scale, with diameter 5 1/4". This however seemsslightly too big for the wells.

Did you have an issue with the wheel diameter of 5 1/4" being too big for the wells, Ram?
