Master Series Bf-109 Build

[Whit Armstrong]

There's an extension called Eggbot for making patterns (hatching and cross-hatching, at least...)

Thanks!

 

[Whit Armstrong]

Wait! Don't build them yet! I just realized that some parts need fixing! You can build them if you wanted to, but some parts on the wings would need trimming and figuring out.

 

[Whit Armstrong]

I've got plans!

I won't

When I build the final prototype, I'll fix all of the issues I find as well as make a paper canopy. I will then trace it onto posterboard and import the design into inkscape.

You can use my canopy you just need to scale it up

Thank you so much!!! That's awesome!

Just be aware that some parts still need fixing, but I'll keep your great markers/labels

How did you fix the line thickness issue? and find where to add tick marks?

 

[GrizWiz]

How did you fix the line thickness issue? and find where to add tick marks?

For the line thickness under the fill and stroke pull out go to stroke style then you can change the line thickness. For the tick marks I make sure that the orientation of the skins is at a 90% angle then I use the arrows from the middle to align the marks!

 

[GrizWiz]

Also when putting skins on the plans make sure the orientation is correct with the grain of the foam otherwise you will get wrinkles

Hmmm.. there was an issue for me where the lines I drew in Inkscape stayed the same thickness whether you were zoomed in or out, but the ones from the imported svg's weren't.

I did that too.. And I did not realize how much space there was on the first page that could be used! The way you packed all the pieces looks so much more compact!

Yup

 

[GrizWiz]

I noticed that some of you details on the hatch are missing from the plans!
