KEV'S THUNDERBIRD 2 POD SCRATCHBUILD


Hi,

I have been scratchbuilding a TB2 for absolutely ages. 
Still haven't finished it, but I've just completed the pod.

Take care,

Kevin

  1. Terrific. When you finish TB2, let's see you do Fireball Junior.

  2. What is your pod made of Kevin? Its baffling how you do it! You should run a course! Get back into teaching! ha ha

  3. The pod is made of a plasticard frame, with a sheet aluminium interior. I then bulked it out with balsa and covered it in milliput. I did take my radio controlled K9 into school once when I was teaching!

    1. Its another language. You really should run a night school course!

  4. I'm awestruck. I'd struggle to build a basic Airfix kit, let alone create something like this from scratch. Looking forward to seeing pix of TB2 when it's finished :)
