tutorial: how to copy your small components using a mou...

[Guest zuurbekje]

Hi all,I added a new tutorial on my website. It's easy to make or copy your small simulator components using a mould of silicon rubber and resin.The idea is not completely new but a tutorial might be useful for the builders community. Please check my website for details:http://home.hccnet.nl/jwopdenakker/flightsimpagina.htmlhttp://home.hccnet.nl/jwopdenakker/image/o...eo367pg11p3.jpghttp://home.hccnet.nl/jwopdenakker/image/o...eo303pg11p3.jpgEnjoy!http://home.hccnet.nl/jwopdenakker/jeroenleveld.jpg

Thank-you, A nice idea to use printed self-adhesive for the stripe, sure beats the fidely masking and hand painting I have used so far. Am definately going to give it a try in the next few days.Simonaka The porcupinewww.desktopflying.co.uk, generally on hold due to large commitmentsVery slowely putting together a generic twin desktop unit.

Yeah, very good.How do you intend to do the hole for the switch shaft?I think if you made another mold of siliconerubber of the hole, maybe that could be placed on top with some holder so that also the shaft hole would be part of the epoxy part?//T
