Jager restoration continues

Jager restoration continues 
Hey all last Friday's post was about pinning the jagermech's limbs, and I mentioned repairing the radar dish as half of it was damaged. 
This post will be another tutorial for you all. 

Plastic packaging, ever wonder what uses it has? 
Well, for starters it can be used for scratchbuilding parts. 
We start off with two peices of plastic packaging, both about 3/64 inch thick. 

Step one:


As the plastic is clear with a smooth surface, we will need to file it down to a matte finish so the glue we'll be using to laminate the peices together will stick together the best. 

Step two: 
Fuse the two peices together with the super glue, and trim it 
down to the size necessary to replace the part. 




In hindsight I should have cut the 30 degree angle on the peice before cutting it down to shape as it is too small to do so know.I will make a new one later.

Also I'd like to take a second out of your day to say that if you enjoy what is posted on this blog, please recommend this blog on Google+ and your friends as it will help us greatly, and in turn, give you more weekly content including product reviews( more on that Friday...) and mech builds and models galore!

With that concludes today's blog post, see you soon.
