I'm looking for plans and the contructional articles for the Vega 9cc v-twin
(Nemett last ME).
I've tracked it down to the flowing copies of ME:
Volume 156 issues:

I am looking for diagrams, blueprints, or high res photographs  of a
Los Angeles County Sikorsky Firehawk S-70 so I can create a model of
this aircraft.
Can anyone point me to a source?  Please email me direct at

I guess this is the right newsgroup for this one.  Its not quite Sieg v
Myford but you can't get more uk.rec.models.engineering than meccano.....
My 7 yr old has one of the (French manufactured) meccano sets.  Alas, he is
having difficulty because the nuts and bolts keep coming ...

Thank you in advance.

i seem to remember that the spirit of st louis is a silvered
colored dope. does anyone make that color?

I have a block of nylon, approx. 50x65x280mm, and I need to cut a
15x65x280 slice from it. I've tried a slitting saw in my miller, but it
gets hot, melts the nylon a bit, and jams - even at the lowest speed.  A
band saw does the same. A hand saw sort-of works, but it's *very* ...

I want to cut out some gaskets and thought I would have a go at making
a rule die.
Where do I get rule from?

Has anyone heard anything about this?
I have done some Google searches, but I cannot find anything specific
other than it either exists or is in development.

At Wonderfest, I bought a resin copy of Mal Reynold's pistol (from
"Firefly") which I intend to do up for a Browncoat friend. It's in three
pieces -- two of which are little knobs under and parallel to the
barrel.

Any figures to go with this kit???
