OK, so I'm just learning how to cast stuff and of course I had to start with something really complicated. Prepping the tower was a real PIA because you have to fill the void behind the struts. This was not an easy thing to accomplish. This is necessary because if I hadn't, the nose & tower would be permanently fixed in the mold. It also makes it possible to be a solid piece rather than like the original fragile piece. I still have some trash in the mold that needs to be removed because some areas of the cast are imperfect or incomplete. Here's a look at my 1st complete attempt. Hopefully the more I clean up the mold, the better my cast will look. BTW, this weighs in at 1.2 oz. Added weight I will need anyway since I'll be using an E-20 for first flight. The rest of the replacement parts arrived yesterday so I'll be prepping for the single construction of the fin & fairings cast today.
