Man! This is really thinking outside the box!

I'm not sure how this all works---Could you expain more detail? I am willing to try a test fusalage. Does the baggie get taped to the outside over the entire fusalage? won't the resin run off?

A photo would be nice so that we cansee what that looks like.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.

Biz-Jet builders, Attenzione !

     Here's a tip to help you show off all that work on your interiors .When you are ready to close them up ,tape them together well and do this .Find some Baggie material ! Yup,Baggie Material . Stretch it as tight as you can over the fuselage top and tape it down tight !

     Now take some of the Water resin from model railroading . Pour it gently over this impromptu mold to the bottom of the window line,let dry .Now add another layer. Let dry well. Now carefully remove this from your plane .

       Now mark the fuselage at the point where you want to show off stuff . Cut the plastic and resin to fit and drop it into place .Fastening it with Aleens or Watch Crystal cement . Now the plane's lines are not compromised and you can still decal it and also see all the work inside . Catchya Later   T.B.
