Hi

I'm a really big fan of the "F/G" versions.

Your method for the headers looks good. On my urethane headers I made, I used a stiff brush and stippled my base coat as it dried to give it a more cast iron look. Then a bit of fine rust look with paint and chalks.

Also, I made an experimental 3 blade adjustable pitch, scale flying prop that as of yet has not been perfected. Need more power and blade "airfoil" modification. Made a mold for static urethane blades at this point with these. Made a composite spinner as well.

And our little 48" span composite "F". A challenge to take off, but really flies nice and fast with an OS VF .46

Will check in regularly to see how its going.

Steve
