Great work like all your builds. The wood is looking very nice and it will be to bad when it is covered.

Thank you.
Today was stormy by a Typhoone. But I finished glueing of wooden parts at all.
Many screws will be removed when she will be dried.

Prof, your work is outstanding.

Prof. Sakai · 06-22-2012, 10:02 AM

Thank you.
I am sure that side armor plates were "One piece".
I was sanding jointed part when two typhoons attacked.

looking good. what type of wood, glue and putty are you using, if you don't mind me asking.

Prof. Sakai · 06-26-2012, 02:26 PM

I use the cheapest plywood, putty for wood, and water based glue for wood. This glue has strong odor of vinegar.
I guess you can get them at all at local DIY shop like Home Depot.

When I built my first brengun carrier I used a plywood door skin I picked up from my local lumber yard. Was easy to work with and sealed the grain with thin coats of Elmer's carpenter glue(Yellow glue). Came out very nice and it weighed less than the later ones useing styrene. Some say that there is a chance of warping from moisture but if you seal the plywood I found that warping didn't occur. For filling seams I used sawdust mixed with Elmer's carpenters glue and automotive spot putty(the red stuff). Love seeing your WIP on this nice Kat. Keep up the good work.... Harold
