Re: Witty Su-37 custom conversion

This weekend, I added the retracted refueling probe. When retracted, a door covers the rear half of the recess while the forward half remains open, exposing the forward portion of the probe.

Using my trusty Dremmel, I ground out the recess, for the refueling probe, and made the probe from some a couple pieces of flotsam and jetsam found on the floor. Couldn't believe how thick the metal was around the nose. It's practically solid all the way through.
