Dude Awesome video!! Seriously, thanks for the tip!

Brother HooooooooD!

Well done, after watching this I may be able to do this. Thanks.

Genious! Who knew that Stick and Wrap would make a good sticker backing? You should have patented this idea and sold it as a hobby product.

Is this iron or monocote or a self adhesive trim sheet?

but if the exhaust cam is off to the left then that means so is the timing sprocket that the belt goes on. so when reseting the timing belt I just align the marks and move it back to the right

+BugginAuthority hey what about the other camshaft the first one he pointed to in the video how do you time that one?? the same as the exhaust cam?

That is just awesome, thank you for shating this, take care my friend

I Am Interested In Using Monokote On A Sonotube Telescope Body Any Suggestions Or Articles I Should Look At...??

Muito bom esse video, legal!! fala em detalhes a posição correta da corrente e engrenagens dos eixos comando do motor 30 valvulas 2.8 v6. Audi. e ainda aponta os numeros de dentes entre um eixo e outro facilitando muito a sua correta montagem. Parabens...

as a volkswagen mechanic I am moved by your gorgeous music playing lol so emotional bro! you wait till your workshop sees 1.4 cav engines yukky poo I am up to my 16th!

the exhaust camshaft is suppose to be slightly further as the video shows, that is perfectly timed.

gracias por el tuto pero me ubiese gusado que lo explicaras verbalmente

next time change your timing belt in time.

Thank you for the excellent demonstration. I'm going to try this technique on a fairly simple pattern as soon as I get hold of a sufficient piece of glass.

If the chain was out of time the MIL lamp (CHECK ENGINE LIGHT) would be on............ no codes means all is right with the timing and world!!

Nice tip, thank you.

Awsome!

Yea. You were definitely right. I had a similar problem with my Touareg. I was right.

SWEET! Now I have to try this technique. I just dig this kind of stuff. Thanks

I have also found out if you use "old" Pressnseal it doesn't release with heat as well as fresh. I had some left over from when I first saw this video almost 3 years ago. It becomes more tacky and I kept pulling up the black monokote.

Everyone talking about plotters, and computers, why are you even looking at this video? The idea is something you can do yourself and get a decent looking design. I find it hard to draw a circle, but I have used this technique with great results. Something I never thought I could do. If I wanted something perfect I would shell out thousands of dollars for someone else to do it. I prefer learning how to do this for myself. And NO, I can't scan vectorize, output to vinyl, but I can do this.

great transfer idea - would like to know if you removed the clear backing from the monokeote before you applied it to the glass with the windex thank you for the adivce

Very well done! This procedure would work well for making insignias for our Scale Warbirds. Also noseart for say a B-25 or B-17 Bomber.

Excellent. Thanks for posting this.

I could be wrong, but what your doing looks just like vinyl cut letters. u could take that image, scan it, use a program like coreldraw to vectorize (make it into line) and then you can output on a vinyl cutter... computer cut vinyl is real a excat. Then apply transfer tape to it, which is like your glad material. then apply the vinyl to the monokote on the plan..

@hopeso Thanks, I really appreciate your informative and helpful post. And that was pretty fast reply. I have a lot of videos posted and I find that I'm not alerted to most of the comments that I get. I have to visit each and every posting and read through the comments section. Have you run into this problem and if so, how do you fix it?

Are you using regular Monokote with th "dry" adhesive or the trim Monokote with the sticky adhesive?

Reminds me when I built a spectra when I was 13. Very good learning experience looking back. At 7 I was still doing the legos

Great !

wow nice skills, i hope to be as good some day

are you using ccpm on your cal 5? Have you changed anything to do 3D?

Nice flying! miss flying with ya!

*bows down to you in worship*

Now thats what I call labor of love....

lol...love the mountain range camo in the beginning. Nice flying!

Nice trick! Pretty KEWL.

is it really critical to let it sit overnight, is it possible to just clean the monokote lay down the press n seal and then apply the heat right away after laying it down on the monokoted piece??? its a very nice idea thanks for your input i will copy that

you used a piece of glass as your work base. is that a piece of plexi glass

WOW

great song great video what is an AJ

what motor /prop do you run ?

Kinda looks like wells fargo feild in euklutna

fare play mate

SuuhhWEEETT!

what is a ca hinge?

WOW! It's been years since I've covered an aircraft, but you can bet the next time I do I'll be using this method because you've shown us how easy it is to apply complex graphics.

Nice video. I've had CA hinges fail (tear apart) after a while, so when I install them, I draw a line across them at the center with a crayon. This keeps the CA from soaking into the fiber at the center and greatly increases durability.

I have no idea how you came up with this but it is genius. Really going to make personalizing my airplanes easier, and great looking. GREAT WORK!
