Getting started at Plastec!



The person I first spoke to at Plastec was Leah regarding poly-carbonate forming for the canopy of the streamliner, I was impressed with her knowledge of materials and so eventually by talking with Barry and Kevin in the shop, a plan developed to make the whole body at PLASTEC instead of using sheet metal. part of the reason is that this Goldenhawk will be toured extensively to air and trade shows where sheet metal can be easily dented ABS is very resilient.
The second photo is of Kevin Knox (Goldenhawk team) and I discuss profile of the finished side panels.
