Making the push rods. First, you make small holes, two for each cylinder.

June 25, 2018
Here's the engine, completely prepared for installation of push rods
23
June 25, 2018
Push rods are made from stretched sprue. Before attaching, I apply small drop of Tamiya liquid glue into the premade holes, then install the rods.

Update: started to detail the engines. 3 engines, 27 cylinders, each one will have 6 individually wrapped and knotted wire - 152 operations in total! 1 done, 2 to go. Also will have to invent some pushing rods, too.

After the engines you may have to change your optical prescription!!

And I think upgrading engines too much in 1:72 is a waist of time for me..... You're in a totally different league Dmitriy, just marvellous work on this scale! 👍

An amazing little plane, beautiful paint scheme! I love all the extra detailing at that scale! 👍 👍

So tiny and so beautiful! It`s a shame I am to big to sit in one of those comfortable seats. A few years ago I sat in a restored original Tante Ju in the Junkers Museum in Dessau.
