Indian Chief 1952 2 cyl 1200 cc sv

[DarBeck]

Hello all! At the end of my photographic reportage from the construction of my "Indian", I wanted to show you of what really had the most work - it was the wheel. And here on the occasion to answer the question Dunakin colleague Ray, why do some things I made from aluminum instead of plastic. I like my work to combine different materials, aluminum is a wonderful material. For many years I dealt with jewelery, hence my tendency to metalworking. Fantastically polished aluminum, for example, mimics the chrome or nickel. That's why I made of aluminum alloy.
Thank you all for your words of recognition to me. I am therefore pleasantly and I feel proud that I wished to take his hobby to the group, and you are all wonderful modeling enthusiasts. I hope that the next presentation of my work also you enjoy it.



















Regards

Dariusz Beck

Wow, it's spoked up just like the real thing. Bravo!

That is a perfect job of lacing the spokes.   
It's a difficult task on the full size rims and even harder here.

Hello Dariusz,
quite apart from that I can only congratulate to this magnificent model, but I would have one more question.

How did you get done with the holes for the spokes in the wheels?

Holes drilled in the rim. As a rule, we choose the diameter of the drill diameter spokes in the wheels. You have to rozmierzyć distance between spokes. In total, this model is the 36 pieces in one circle.

Yours Darius Beck

Yes, I know the work of Mr.. Tarrago. He makes models of which I can only dream of. His models are in 1/6, and my 1/9 scale.
