Θέμα: Making air intakes for Avro Arrow Minicraft 1/48

[Anthony--14]

Γεια τύποι, χρειάζομαι μερικές ιδέες σχετικά με το πώς να κάνω έναν αεραγωγό εισαγωγής για το πρότυπο βελών Avro μου. Δεν υπάρχει μετά από τα σύνολα αγοράς για το, και χτίζω ένα σακάκι έτσι Ι ανάγκη να χτιστούν ο ίδιος. Μερικοί από τους άλλους πρότυπους φίλους μου μου είπαν τον καλύτερο τρόπο να κάνουν αυτό πρόκειται να τους χαράσουν από τον αφρό, και να θερμάνουν έπειτα ένα φύλλο του πλαστικού και να το τραβήξουν πέρα από το κ.λπ...... Υπάρχουν οποιεσδήποτε άλλεσδήποτε ιδέες που θα μπορούσατε να σκεφτείτε έξω; ευχαριστίες, Anthony.

Anthony Hi again... It would be much easier for you to write in Eglish, and much easier for us to understand what you are trying to say... I presume that you used babelfish to traslate in Greek your post, but believe me this is the worst choice you could have, since babelfish Greek translation is out of the league... So please, post again in English...

Or,If you understand Greek,try with Greeklish...

Ok, makes my life simpler lol...

I need to make air intakes for my Avro Arrow model, but I was asking if anyone knows a way to go about doing this. Some suggested that I use foam to make it, then cast it...

Just wondering if there was a simpler way...

thx. Anthony.

Anthony,
I'm not sure about the way I'm about to suggest as I have never tried it myself, but I suspect that most Aftermarket vendors do it like that. I'd suggest making a (wooden?) master of the intake itself (that is, the hollow part through which the air passes to the engine) and then "coat" it with sheet styrene, then cutting it in half and regluing together, plus any additional putty work. I know it has the drawback of a seam, but in the end, most default kit intakes suffer from the same "fault".
If you're building the 1/48 Arrow (minicraft I suppose), you can also check Mastercasters' intake faces.
