| MiG-21 Stands OK, one of the things I DON'T like about the HM MiG-21s, is that they won't sit on the stands with the centerline fuel tank installed. So, I decided to modify the stand... First, I cut of the existing points on the side arms. I bought some 1/8" styrene rod (Evergreen), but it was too big for the holes in the wings, so I cut two pieces, dremeled one end of each down to fit, and glued them onto the stand arms. Once the glue cured for 24 hours, it seems to work GREAT... This is what the stand looked like before I painted the styrene rod black.  | |||||||||||||
