Van Loo Chipmunk
« on: February 09, 2009, 02:04:23 PM »
I am getting ready to start a Van Loo Chipmunk project. I am looking for a source for a canopy and the wheel pants. They need to be the ones that are in the Sig CL-3 Chipmunk. I know that I could carve the pants out of balsa but it would be nice if I could find a set of original ones that I could make a mold off of.
Thanks,
Tom

I have a set of the plastic pants from my Umland Chipmunk kit. Could you use them for a mold?

Tom:
Go to the "vendor's" list, Winddancer Models list a canopy for the Sig CL-3 Chipmunk

I got an email from Bill at Windancer and he said that he can make the canopys for me.
Thanks,
