    large scale 777

    I have loved flying on and watching the 777 for awhile now and love their looks. I have always dreamed of building a scale (flying) model of one of them and i have a dead line by the 10th of december to finish as my wife due to give birth then.
    So I am starting construction of my large scale model, It will be twin electric ducted fan but that part will come later once i have a plane to mount to.
    I started cutting some bulkheads out. (and lucky for me i own a laser cutter) I plan to build the model out of fibreglass so i am currently building the plug so i can create a mold from it. Its sure no quick job and i been spending most of this evening sanding the foam to shape. The fuse will be in a couple parts to make transport easy.
    The photo is from 2 nights work on it so far. I really hate sanding and this whole build is going to be all about sanding so i need to post my effort so i stick with it.

    Nice to see there is another 777 been built on here

      Bro Jiez, build your own jet, man. From the pics you posted 1-2 yrs ago, you're ready for it!

            Thanks for the comments guys. Yes it sure makes one hell of a mess sanding the foam. all the dust on my clothes makes me look like i have a flaky scalp
            I will glue up the rest of the foam for this front section of the fuse today so it can be sanded on tuesday. The weather no good lately it only 4degc so things are taking for ever to dry
