The camera is a Canon S-10 digital job. It is similar to their new S-100 Digital Elph which they are advertising like crazy but it is little larger and I think the picture quality is superior. It is a 2 megapixel camera and has a built in 2x optical zoom and a very nice macro mode which allows me to focus down to a couple inches or so. Just fantastic for close in shots of models. I've got a 64 megabyte compact flash card in it so I can get about 280 or so photos at 800 x 600. Not great for prints but more than adequate for the computer screen! It will do up to 1600 x 1200 if I recall. I've been very happy with it.

Volume isn't the issue, but rather the surface area to volume ratio. A couple of drops of each part mixed with a toothpick on a piece of foil or plastic has a lot of surface area relative to the total volume. The small amount of heat generated by the reaction dissipates easily and does not cause a problem. OTOH, a larger volume mixed in a cup generates more heat and has relatively less surface area through which to dissipate it, so the heat builds up and is noticable. A thin layer of epoxy between two plastic parts will generate the same heat as any equal volume of epoxy, but maximizing the area over which it is spread allows the plastic to absorb the heat without getting hot enough to melt itself. I think it wouldn't be too hard to get a thick enough layer of epoxy to cause problems with 5 thou card, but spread thin, it shouldn't cause any problems. sp ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 27 Mar 2001 00:03:25 From: "Jim Landon" To: wwi@wwi-models.org Subject: Re: Epoxy - was St. Harry Knows Message-ID: Brent said: <> I can't wait to get home and mix a batch and stick a thermometer into it.

He began a couple of years ago building Smer kits with all of the beginners flaws that we probably all started out with, but has become better & better. he used the DML spad with Ministry of Small Aircraft Production decals. Nice clean build, except I believe the overall light yellow finish was not liked as well by the judges as camouflaged/lozenged aircraft. Hopefully we'll be seeing lots more from Bill, I know he is doing another DML Fokker Dr.1 and will get an Eduard Albatros D.III soon.

Only those wealthy enough or obsessed enough actually made the attempt to follow the regs. I don't have the documentation right to hand, but I do remember this: men and officers had the option of a cap that had a leather top to it, to stave off difficulties with grease, etc. picked up around the airfields. Shoulderboards carried the winged propeller of which I spoke the other day, and the duty cap for officers was supposed to feature a black velvet band, piped in red top and bottom, just above the visor. Osprey, in their book about the German Army 1914-1918, mentions an upcoming title about the uniforms of the flying service; does anyone know if they ever came out with it? Hans has the right of it for actual use, as opposed to regulations. The men wore the uniforms of their old regiments, and pieces of Allied equipment either taken or given them by survivors they shot down. Apparently the leather overcoat with detachable fur collar was the prized piece of British equipment; Kurt Wolff was given one by a gentleman he shot down, who survived the encounter. It can be clearly seen in a number of photos of Wolff. Movies that insist all German airmen wore Uhlan tunics drive me nuts.... ;-) And I second Hans' vote asking them to use the pilot's badge. Much easier all around... Cheers, Rev. Sharon --- Hans Trauner wrote: > . All that I know about was the official German > pilots > > badge, but never heard about an emblem. > > And so it is.

Before the war there was no Fliegertruppe, and after the war, no military marking would have been issued in Prussian-specific colors. The shoulderboards are made in the standard cording woven for junior officers, with wide bands of feldgrau thread interspersed with smaller bands of black and white for Prussia. And right in the middle, there is a winged prop on each board -- but the wings are shaped slightly different from US and other country's similar emblems. I'll dig them out tonight, photograph them, and try to mail you the pic by Tuesday at the latest. Aren't such puzzles fun?? :-) Cheers, Sharon --- Gaston Graf wrote: > Sharon, > > are you sure it are really WW1 emblems?

Org" Subject: Successfull Book weekend Message-ID: It really pays to make the occasional trip to your local plastic pusher........ I dropped into Burnaby Hobbies over the weekend, they were having there inventory sale. I looked at the FMP Pfalz book. After all the discussion on the list, I was happily surpised 180 odd pages and I would say its well worth buying. Lots of plans of most Pfalz types from the A1 through the DXV in 1/72 and 1/48. Extremely clear pictures, the intro says they cleaned the pictures up. I would have to say it was well worth while some of the best quality pictures in a book that I have seen. Oh and Bobs profiles are well damn good imho. Allan Durkota had some profiles as well and there is light years difference as far as I am concerned, no criticism on Allan just my preference. Plus I got this book on sale ;) Then I rummaged through the bargain books box. I found the Crowood Aviaton Series "Aeroplanes of the Royal Aircraft Factory" for $20. Another really great book that to some extent puts the RAF factory in perspective. I have been waiting for this book to go on sale for ages. I finally know what the BE9 Pulpit looks like. Sheesh and I thought the Spad A2 looked dangerous. One of the great things about Burnaby hobbies is its run by John Tarvin of Airframe fame. Apart from the fact that if he's in on the day you visit you won't leave for an hour or two and you'll learn an awful lot about OT aircraft and scratchbuilding. John often puts books he's done with in the bargin books box. Hence the RAF book. ;) Then today I got home and what had arrived in the post but the Taube Dove of War. So I'm going to be a bit busy now, got a lot of reading to do. Hmmm A Rumpler Taube Limousine ............ Moral of the story look through sales bins and visit the hobby store now and again. I also picked up a Flashback Voisin to. but thats a model so doesnt count.

If I'm not crazy now, I will be when I finish. So far I'm running about 50%, destroying about half the decal strips I've tried to apply. Anyway, I have some questions. My intent is to apply decal strips at the rib stations, then paint over them, since they are the same color as the rest of the wing surface. However, the Tango Papa paper I'm using seems to be very thin and fragile. I'm not sure it will show up under a coat of paint. Am I using the right technique, or have I misunderstood some of the discussion on the list? Should I thicken the decal paper by coating it with some clear Humbrol, a technique I used to keep my Glencoe Pfalz decals from disintegrating when they hit the water? I've noticed a lot of discussion lately about lacing rib stations using monofilament. Should I consider going this route? Am I making any sense? So many questions...
