RE: WACO YMF

Hey Stickbuilder!!!

I'm having some trouble getting the engine running so the...

RE: WACO YMF

Thanks Bill, So you are overlapping about 1/8" then it sounds. That's more or less how I did my small pieces, rudder, ailerons etc. The ailerons and elevator had to be wrapped further over because...

RE: WACO YMF

Hey Bill,
I've got a lot of good progress on my covering. Boy do I like this Koverall. It did take forever kovering my two ailerons and elevator. They have scallops. I hope the next time I hear...

RE: WACO YMF

Well I finally got it started! So far I LOVE this Koverall. It's real easy compared the old silk and doping! I'm having a bit of trouble with the corners as always. Corners are a bit of a real...

RE: WACO YMF

Thanks Stickbuilder.
That clears it up. I also thought by one piece you meant one piece entire wing both top and bottom all one, I was going to go all the way around in one piece. Glad you...

RE: WACO YMF

Hey Todd,

RE: WACO YMF

Hey Todd,
Thanks, I'll take another look. I read that, (since I read labels first :eek:) I thought the finished seam they referred to was the seam on the part being covered. IE, where the...

RE: WACO YMF

Finding which way the grain runs in this Koverall is tough. It's really hard to see. I bought the package of 48" X 5 yards. I think the grain is running the long length. In other words I should...

RE: WACO YMF

Hey Bill,
Did I see you say that I should put 3 coates of straight nitrate on the solid areas that are being covered?? Boy I forgot how smooth this stuff gets! I can barely hold onto this thing....

RE: WACO YMF

Thanks Bill,
So the rudder that I have pictured above you would cover with two pieces? And it does get shrunk like the wing. Before sticking it down in the centers? I don't have a covering iron....

RE: WACO YMF

Hi Stickbuilder,
I've got my two coates of dope on finally! Getting ready to cover the wing probably tomorrow. I just stick the edges then shrink the koverall at 250 degrees? The shrinking is...

RE: WACO YMF

Bill,
The DelStar enamel wouldn't be fuel proof without clear coating I assume? It's basically the same as using the automotive paints that I'm used to using. Right????

On the next bird I'll...

RE: WACO YMF

Thanks khodges. I never thought about using the wax paper over it. I bet it does make a nice smooth surface. The hobby shop didn't have any micro balloons last night either. I got a little bit...

RE: WACO YMF

RE: WACO YMF

Hey Bill,
This is such a newbie question I'm embarrassed to ask. :eek: It's been so long I just don't remember a lot of things. Maybe it's not the length of time that's the problem but the age...
