seat belts
Posted by CPO on Friday, April 3, 2009 11:50 AM
I am in the process of building Academy's T-33 1/48 scale and I wanted to make seat belts but these seats are so small how do you get them mounted. Had planned on using desolder braid for the belts and it is approx. 1/8 in wide, this is my first time at trying to do this so I need all the help I can get.
Thanks,
Pat

If you are asking how to attach, just simply use a CA (super glue) as an adhesive. I typically use aftermarket seatbelts, adn simply super glue one end on outside of seat, then when it sets, I press the belts into a natural position, and glue other buckle end. Is this what you are asking??

I use several items... Flattened solder, foil tape, masking tape, medical tape.. Depends on what I feel like... The solder and foil give the best results for belts IMHO...
