| Carousel P-40 stand Thanks to our good friend on this site, Black 6, I am the proud new owner of a 1:48 Welch Pearl Harbor P-40. While I truly love this airplane, I am a little dumbfounded as to why Carousel would offer a wheels up option, yet provide no stand. Does anyone here have a good idea as to how to display this in an in-flight option? ie. Has anyone found a good option/alternative for a stand? Thanks. | |||||||||||||

| Re: Carousel P-40 stand Skydiver, I have used a Corgi stand for my Fw190 & Me 109's and it works great. Never tried it with a P-40 yet. See links. http://themodelhangar.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2473 http://themodelhangar.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2909 JP | |||||||||||||

| Re: Carousel P-40 stand They actually thought we'd hang 'em from the ceiling....  The Marushin stands work well as a generic stand for just about all 1:48 scale fighters. You can get them at Aikens or on ebay from Hobby Japan... they ain't cheap though. | |||||||||||||

| Re: Carousel P-40 stand
Pappy's right. $35.80 for a stand on ebay which includes shipping, and $35.00 plus shipping on Aikens. No way in hell I am spending $35.00+ on a stand. I guess I will look at what I have around the house and see if I can make something work. | ||||||||||||||
