Rubber D Fendering
« on: December 05, 2006, 06:32:41 pm »
Who sells D Shaped Rubber fendering ?

I have tried model slipway but the stuff they supply with the trent is too big.

Looking for some with a flat base side of 3-4mm and height of about the same.

Aboyt 3m would be ideal.

Any ideas  ???

You can get foam draft excluder in various profiles from hardware stores.

I have bought it in 'D' and 'P' profile.  I thinkd the smallest was about 5mm, but the trimmed 'P' profile may be suitable for you.

I got some from Westbourne models..Robbe but 8mm base - 7mm high. The size your after seems really small to offer any protection, might be easier to sand some square section styrene or wood and spray matt black.

Slipway also do a D shaped fendering for the Drumbeat model. As this is to a smaller scale than the Trent, I'd assume (dangerous I know) this may be a smaller section and more suitable.
