    flood hole sanding sticks

    David,

    Some time ago, probably years ago, you posted some pix of your technique for making flood holes pretty much all the same size. I can't find that link. It involved gluing sand paper to a user-created form to be used to finalize a flood hole size. Do I have that right? If you have some spare time (bad joke, I know) could you post some pix or a description of your method. I find myself in flood-hole-Hell and, to be blunt, I'm a complete klutz with a file. My flood holes look like they were finished with a jack hammer. These holes are rectangular in shape about 1/8" by 3/8". It's on a 1/30 model - details to follow.

    Thanks, once again,

    Dan

    Stop messing about - just get a Sub-driver!

      Can I purchase item V by itself? If not, there's no way I'm buying the whole thing just to get sanding sticks.

      How are they made?

          Email sent. I don't care what everyone else says - you're all right.

          Thanks again - again

            May I purchase item "I" separately for the Gato??? I seemed to have lost mine.

            Also one of my linear servos is dead for the 1.25 sub driver.
            I bought the earlier versions of the 1.25 it did not come with linear servo magnet/holder.
            My apologies my shopping list is long.

            Thanx
