Amazing Plane Rivit's!

Iam a big fan of Formula 1 racing also! " Rivit's won alot of races.

I've tried in past to find stuff on Rivits too. RCM now de-funked! had .15 size miget racing plan avail. - Defunked Model Builder had a peanut scale version also.

I have a series of books at home on racing planes from the 70's and it has a excellent 3 view drawing of the plane.

If you draw up plans I would be interested in getting a copy from you?

rivets

Thanks Jim,

I've seen the strictly scale site.

I like the idea of the soldering iron method for flush rivets. I am going to give this a go. I have talked to guys who use glue/syringe method for profile - sounds a bit too labour intensive.

thanks all.
