After finishing some other projects I've been sidetracked with over the winter, I'm back to making F/C parts.
The fuel lines are made from solid copper wire and Brass fittings, then covered with braided tubing. After all the parts are bent, fit in place and covered with braiding, everything is soldered together. All the fittings will be painted Red and Blue and the braiding will get a light coat of paint to keep it from tarnishing.
Thank you for your attention to detail and for sharing your skills. Larry Landis

Nice job! The braiding adds a nice touch. Where did you find that?
ReplyDeleteThe braided lines I bought are flat I can’t even get them to get into shape
ReplyDeleteWhat scale is this build
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job with this motor model. FYI, Your AN fittings (Brass nuts) should be tapered where they join to the braided lines. https://bangshift.com/general-news/tech-stories/fittings-101-get-hose-need-know-getting-started-car/
