Re: chopper #2
Wow I like this theme! Can you tell me (us) how you made that red stripe around the seat? Is it a wire or something?

Kris.

Re: chopper #2
Very nice!
I've been hooked on the other set of decals that came with this one, but after seeing your build I may well change my stripes.

Re: chopper #2
Hi guys I have a question for you all... I'm doing a Revell Torch kit right now and I don't understand how is it possible to glue the frame, paint it and AFTER install the front fork ( like you guys are doing ).
In the manual they tell to install the front fork and glue the frame together.

If anyone could help me I will very appreciate.
Thanks!

Re: chopper #2
I have a crusader kit here. You should be able to install the front fork at any time. I chopped off the nubs for the rear wheel mounting, I'll be making up my own axle and probably will use 0-80 or 2-56 allen cap screws to secure the wheel.

I have a coffin tank made for it out of styrene, not sure I'm happy with it yet.

Re: chopper #2
Just don't glue the very tip of the frame until after you installed the fork. You won't notice it on the finished model.
