1/18th Scale Mi-24 Hind Will Become A Reality !!!
- Thread starter Pickelhaube
- Start date
Except when trying to find something .
Here is the rear rotor skeleton . Just enough to keep the blades from snapping. Probably would not need it if handled correctly . But just in case
I also started doing this for my Huey rotor copies . Those had a tendency to warp and after placing a wire in the mold that tendency stopped .
Here is the heavy brass skel for the main rotor.
Hey Guys,
Here is an update on the Hind and hopefully the last delay.
I sent Daremo all of the smaller parts including the cargo doors and rocket pod nose cones.
He was having major problems casting them so I had him ship the parts to me .
I received the parts and made my own molds the cargo doors were fine but the nose cones not so much.
I am having the same issue as Daremo .
The first pour a couple of fingers ripped off of the molds for the holes in the pods.
The second pour ALL OF THE HOLE fingers ripped off .
I made a drilling jig so as to re-drill the holes at the tip of the pods and I need to make 2 more jigs for the other 2 layers of holes.
So I am going to have to drill 5,120 holes by hand using my jigs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Daremo was also have some family issues that have all been worked out so he is back on the ball .
He is promising me to have 5 complete sets to ship out next week .
I need to get the 5 sets then kit them up and ship.
The way things are working out that may take another 1-2 weeks .
HERE IS SOME BAD NEWS FOR YOU ORIGINAL SUPPORTERS OF THIS PROJECT .
I have sold 5 kits on e-bay .
4 of them are past due and one of the buyers have started a case on me.
Before I get 4 cases on me I need to send them their kits .
These kits will be marked 35,36,37,38,39and 40.
YT will get # 1 and so on .
I know this sucks but 2-3 weeks are all I need ( I hope ) and the kits will start to role.
Last Christmas came and went .
I hope to have all Hinds shipped by Christmas this year.
Even the full builds
And now there is a storm in the gulf heading our way.
What kind of delay will this bring about ?

EvilBay strikes again!
That sucks.. but it is what it is. Always better to not sell on there until you have the product ready to ship. Too many shady people on there these days trying to get something for nothing.
Oh well, keep us updated. Hopefully the storm doesn't do too much to you!

Not worried about delays. The fact that you get everything done while being a one-man operation is amazing, Pickelhaube's always delivered and this is a gigantic project.
Yes this is a gigantic project.
To the point of being overwhelmed , but work continues .
Just got back from Kinkos/Fed Ex and the directions are done !!
There may be some gray areas in the directions were multiple pieces were made into one .
There are some area details that were not in the kit ( radio bay behind pilot)
I have abandoned the customized rocket pod nose cones and will be going with the original stock design.
I am still waiting for those to come in from the 3D printer.
YES ANOTHER DELAY.
Daremo was overwhelmed with his small part production but this week his parts will hopefully be on line.
His casting process is very involved with the pressure pot and the cooking of the parts that takes about 2 days to make parts.
So he has made 5 sets of each part and has made gang molds of those parts.
So he will be making 5 sets for one pour .
This is great but he has had to make 2 full sets of molds and those 5 sets have taken weeks to make.
I have always been able to go to different places and pick up shipping boxes for free.
But the large size of this project may require that I purchase the shipping boxes.
I have not charged anyone for shipping and handling as of yet.
The soon to be purchased boxes are the handling part.
I have purchased 6 gallons kits ( 12 gallons) of resin and it looks like I will be needing 6 more kits to finish the 41 Hind kits.
That is the reason for going to E-bay for more sales .
There is a possibility I may have to sale 2 more kits there to pay for the resin.
Time will tell if I have to do that .
We are at it and every free hour I get is spent working on this project.
Except yesterday watching the Saints win in a roller coaster of a game against the Lions.
Man what a game !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK looks like I got the hang of smugmug .
Here is plan B for the rocket cones . I am casting these as is and I am making a solid cone to fit inside of it to block the see through.
Pilot and WSO patiently waiting for this project to ship .
Here is plan B for the rocket cones . I am casting these as is and I am making a solid cone to fit inside of it to block the see through.
Pilot and WSO patiently waiting for this project to ship .
Me and Daremo cast the cones the way I made them with holes for the rockets .
When we tried to cast the part the rubber fingers would tear out and no more hole left. FAILER
So I tried to make a drilling jig but they holes were not perfect. ANOTHER FAILER
So I had Jay make more cone the way they were made original. The issue with this is that the rocket cones are see through.
So I made little cones to fit in the rocket cone.
Here is the latest Hind update .
Full disclosure .
Apprx 4-5 months ago I sent the small parts out to have them made by another guy.
I gave him about $200 or so to pay for the resin and RTV
At the time everything was hunky dory.
Fast forward 2-3 months he did not touch the project because he was having family issues .
2 months ago he promised me that he would have 6 sets for me ready to ship on that Friday.
No sets show up and he does not answer the phone.
This goes on for 3-4 weeks not answering the phone and no reply to texting.
3 weeks ago he finally picked up and said that he will send everything that he has back to me.
Including the molds that he did make.
I get everything back and he was able to make a few parts.
The parts he made were beautiful !!
But not enough for a kit .
So I convinced him to try and finish this project with me and I gave him another $100 as an incentive and shipped the molds back to him .
He said that he should be able to send the first order " next week".
That week goes by no response no answer to texting.
Last week he finally pics up and said that he will get back on it but does not know when he can ship.
This week I have gotten a gallon unit of RTV and will be making those small parts.
I basically have wasted 6 months waiting for him to make the parts.
6 months waiting for parts just pizzed away.
So I am back to square one and have about 1/2 the molds made that I need for the small parts and by this weekend they will all have been made.
Work allowing next week I think that I will have the parts to ship.
I am angry about this situation , and your patience is truly appreciated.
So this is the broken record saying just another 2 weeks.
This time I have control on the situation and it will be NO LATER THAN 2 WEEKS .
Hopefully less.
Matthew

Gotta have thick skin Pick. Not many will understand how hard it is to get stuff like this, out for others. It is a monumental task and can only be taken up by the people with the talent, skills, time, money, and patience. An analogy could be, firing a rocket into space and landing it on something.....sounds easy right?.....but it aint.
No worries.. I'm pretty confidant no one will die if they don't get their Hind by a certain date. We're all just excited to see it finally come to fruition (Now if it was an A-10...!).
As Eddie said.. the casting community.. whew, lads. Talk about a bad reputation. I don't know if there is something in the chemicals or what.. but they seem to have the worst health/luck/family issues I've ever seen.

Thanks Hellpop.
Finally some good news.
The first batch of kits should go out today or Tuesday.
Recipients have been contacted and I will post the shipping costs.
If I have not contacted you for your address , yours is not ready to be shipped.
Once I get the Ebay buyers wrapped up , I will be going down the list.
Unfortunately you multiple buyers will get only one kit at this time .
Hopefully the next batch of kits will go out next week .
I will contact you for your mailing address .
IF YOU DO NOT CONTACT ME WITH YOUR MAILING ADDRESS AT TIME OF SHIPPING ,
YOU WILL GET BUMPED FOR THE NEXT GUY DOWN THE LIST.
REMEMBER I WILL CONTACT YOU FIRST.
Once the last kit is shipped full builds will commence.
Post from Grunt
Hey gang, I was so worried about my Hind that I flew down to New Orleans to check in on it personally!
Just kidding, I was there doing some research at the National WWII museum and had the honor and privilege of meeting the actual Mr. and Mrs. Picklehaube in person. They treated me to a excellent shrimp dinner and I got to hold a hind in my own hands.
This thing is a beast! Both in size, scale and sheer part quantity. I believe it would be fair to say it’s the most extensive 1:18 scale production done so far outside of those multi-thousand dollar eastern European wizards.
Pickle was kind enough to let me take a few photos of the Hind factory. Pickle's shop reminded me of the photos you occasionally see posted of a WWII factory production line.
Pickle said it was ok to post there pics so here you go![/quote]

Pick, on evilbay, it saying that this is a BBI product....we all know its not. BBI 21st Century 1/18th Scale Resin Mi-24 Hind Model Kit BBI 21st Century 1/18th Scale Resin Mi-24 Hind Model Kit Guy's are starting to say that this might be a scam. We know you are not a scam... Just giving you a heads up....... I don't like it when my brothers get dissed for working so hard on something like this.....
Here is the direct eBay link:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/192216061619?rmvSB=true
Yeah "BBI 21st Century" is kind of weird, but a lot of people do that for search engine hits or to make it show up easier.
Technically a "BBI 21st Century" brand doesn't exist, and the description doesn't read as if he's trying to pass it off as one of their products so I think it's fine.
Personally I'd probably re-word it as something like:
1/18th Scale Resin Mi-24 Hind Model Kit similar to BBI 21st Century
Or something. It's a sold auction so I don't think it matters too much at this point.
Looking forward to seeing the final things Pickel!

Yeah, and when you click on the "details" button on ShopKorea (whatever the hell that is) it takes you to the actual, completed, auction.
I don't know why ShopKorea is behind the times, but you can't blame Pickel for their stupid website.

Yeah, and that's a good thing!
I don't think Pickel has any more units for actual sale right now though, so hopefully that ShopKorea site takes it down, even though you can't buy any through it.
Hopefully all the scam nonsense will go away once people get the units in their hands. Can't wait to see some painted/finished models.

Well the reason I put up BBI and 21st Century is that is what people do when they are selling their 1/18th scale planes .
Almost everyone does it.
Check out e-bay .
Now why would anyone have anything to say about that ?
It is done all of the time so why should I not be able to do it.
People just have too much time on their hands.

I just shipped out 6 kits and the average price was $30 counting shipping materials .
So when I contact you please send $30 via paypal , check or money order.
Thanks guys.

Fair enough....... I have learned my lesson sir. Now I have to go and apologize to a number of people because I didn't think you would deceive like that.
What ?
Deceive ??????????????????
When someone is looking for 1/18 scale on ebay they will search for BBI 21st and so on .
My kit would have come up.
If they would have searched for Pickelhaube Customs , what do you think will happen ?
I will do the work for you.

I’m pretty sure I know the caster you used, I got the same BS from him, few years ago, he stoled my money, my custom part, n never did shit, same crap, family BS, dog died, sister died, blah blah blah, Frigen guy was an A$$hole, if it’s the same guy, it’s crap like that that can ruin your reputation, I’m a General contractor and if I treated my customers that way I’d be broke!

One of the pretty well respected casters took my money for a set of original 1:12 scale heads he was offering and then vanished until last week when he said he was having family problems. He also said he could not give us our money back. I'm in no rush and I think he'll come through eventually, but it's frustrating. I can only imagine when you're depending on someone to help you fulfill promises you made to others!
Tell the eBay complainers to come to this forum. We'll set them straight. I assume you also sent them photos of the partially completed hinds so they know they're at least real. I so wish I had bought into this project when I had the money. Now I'm shit broke.

Hey Guys,
With the end of the year quickly approaching .
I will give you the latest semi update.
My son is in town for the Holidays and I would like to take a couple of weeks off of the HIND .
Believe me I do need a break from it. I am starting to dream of being in my shop pouring pieces all night long.
That my friends is a NIGHTMARE.
I would like to thank 3 special people who have helped out with this project in so many ways .
First is Jay .
Without his 3D skills this project would never have gotten started.
2nd is T-bird
Without his financial backing and support this project would have been stalled.
3rd is Grunt
In the 11th hour his 3D skills input saved the day on the rocket pods and other pieces going into the hundreds .
And thank you to the other 40 supporters who have invested your time and money in the making of this project.
THANK YOU AND HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!!!
