I visited a famous hobby shop in Akihabara as a famous hobby spot in
Tokyo.. I researched classification of the goods being sold at hobby shop.

I think that current Japanese model hobby is following.
Model making is not the goal , website posted by bloggers modeling is purposes,
the production itself has become the means of many cases.
I also spent more time in the production study. Production study drawing freehand on paper or drawing on a grid paper.
Copies of the plan to scale the
drawing to the size of production coming topic convenience, fun to make if we
have time.
The following table shows my analysis of Japanese hobby trend for 30 years.

Filmed on the roof in hot
weather. I have taken in the room first, dark room after 3 pm, indoor shooting of rays in relation to quit.
Mounting state auxiliary port, oil tanks fireproof bulkhead, machined brass,
soldered two oil filter and other cylindrical objects.
Right: The rear engine mount auxiliary cylinder head, I can rivet on the
surface of the wing & air compressor machining is showed in right cylinder
Not only tapping the main landing gear ,mounting bolts and insert the tack.

Lear wire red & blue is for micro motor to rotate spinner
August 4,2011
About the spinner was rotated by the motor. Oil pipe, spark plug wires I even
made a not very visible in shadow.
Spinner is our previous work, "suisei" was borrowed from. Spitfires spinner was fixed with suisei shipinnershapes so I cut a little
bit .
The following is where we make a
wonder. Either main landing gear, and wonder where small parts on the front fire
bulkhead . It comes as a courier is now
mobile. Since Friday& Thursdays holiday , takes delivery receiving useful.
I had two more lath lead nuts as spare parts I thought that was zero After reviewing the inventory. What we have three spare nuts. Maybe it's my concern diseases.
I dropped the handy grinder fitted with φ1 inadvertently broke the drill.
Making the Spitfire was reached the process by turning. Produced using the crankshaft
bolt M5. Lathe machining center is open on
the side opposite the hole φ1 head of M5 8mm hex bolts. φ1 drill has just folded, the new
lowered. Holes in steel up to 5mm cutting
depth φ1, φ1 and fixed with quick-drying glue on the motor shaft. The spinner was able to assemble
a M5 tap off so well. Since the bottom of the picture by rotating the motor, rotating swing was
good.

I work to prepare for the long summer holidays, have ordered spare parts.
Two pre-order them as parts of the lathe leadscrew nut.
φ2, well stocked with pre-drilled
so fragile φ2.5. You can rest assured that aligned
the three reserves the bandsaw blades.
Previously M3, it had no reserve
of any kind at all, tap M4, flew to the home center and break.
It was the end of that night.
Previously had only a tap of the M3 off occasionally, Merlin engine in
this process from the bottom
Seven M3 taps have been machined invisible hiding .

I put cylinder head bolts, and exhaust pipes and others.

Spitfire workshop has started.
The nose of the Spitfire wooden
produced this morning, I made a hanger from the fireproof bulkhead around the
engine.
Work for the first time entered
the room two and a half months, really since the Zero Fighter was completed in
May holidays. Shutters were closed and leave
it, many of the typhoon rains also affected by moisture.
Paper had been Botoboto by
moisture. Wooden cutouts of the aluminum
plate was inserted in the engine hanger there was a hole in the wooden and
integrated machining brass rod.
The motivation is out, let me be
motivated to be purchased at $ 50 a Spitfire Owner's Workshop Manual.
Brass plate is heated to a
red-hot stove and then cut in, I will be tempered by natural cooling.
Spring and fall back to the original characteristic bend,
Brass plate will tend to become
leave bent. 3-D bend is still difficult, I
like the picture wrinkled.
And modeling are everyday worries
and work, and can not without stress. Maybe that was the first time in
several months free from various stresses.
Given only that the climate of
the workshop should be able to work comfortably without air conditioning, May
and June was to investigate the Spitfire without producing
anything.

A small collection held in Tokyo. Those collections are collected by Aviation
writers in Japan.

[rolls royce merlin]・・・・・・・I found a 1:5 merlin actually drive model. It isfatastic.
Probably I can make this engine for 4times weekends.
2011年5月15日
The scale is 1:24.
Here is my plan to make merlin engine.
May 7,2011
Was the third time during the
holidays visit the Hamamatsu Air Park. With the family since, ate shrimp
pilaf the third floor in the corner coffee shop.
Because the family is not
interested in aircraft and engine at all and the exhibition toured the hangar
alone. <BR>
20 days starting value, the
engine will go into the eye. The body is like now graduated,
will have drawn into the engine. <BR>
TF-40 engine, the engine was
producing Rolls-Royce license IHI. Support fighter F1, has been
training with machine T2. <BR>
TF-40 because the drawings are
not commercially available absolutely every single real structure of the
auxiliary basis, to understand if you made a thin brass pipe line? To reproduce the same number of
turbine blades precisely what to do. Reproduction of this engine is
going to be quite high.
J79engine for F104&F4 Jet engine、It's developed by General
Electric ,and Lisenced to IHI.

This is Hamamatsu Air Park located in Hamamatsu Air Base.
Left is back view of F2 Right
is zeke type 52.This plane was cut its wing.And rebuild wing.
So
the strength of wing is lack .Because it is hanged by wire.
