Mike, the plan was to remodel the nacelles into something that didn't need to be as long. I also didn't want to chop up the originals as they will still be used on a RW Dart Dakota. As I have described in an earlier post, the original exhaust is just a round pipe sticking out the side, I've changed that to a rectangular one that goes up and over the wing which is how a lot of Darts were configured. This new exhaust still exits the nacelle in the same place, just it's different.
I've been teaching myself how to make moulds and cast (with some friendly advise from various people), and the idea is to make a master and then cast a bunch of replicas. I've a few other projects where this will come in handy and save a lot of time making multiples of everything individually (especially as we've only got five weeks here (possible 7 if we get an extension).
In these pics below you can see how much I've changed the nacelle from the original. I've added a prop shaft and a tapered fairing to the intake, the fairing matches the props I'm going to use. Then I had to slightly reprofile the rear end to match the Sunderland nacelle and of course carve out the hole for the exhaust pipe. From here I'll make a new mould, then cast as many of these things as I need.
