Source for 737 eyebrow moldings

Thanks! I'll try again. That is the e-mail he told me to use, but he's not responding.

I need a quick-don O2 mask and a couple of other small parts.

Thanks Vidar,
i would definitley buy some replicas if you made them and as Michael says, it doesnt matter if they are clear as they can always be painted.
cheers

i have done this a few times and the approach for eyebrows is just as easy.

the finished mould is one of a plaster or fibreglass outer with a addition cure flexible silicon inner. this saves money and makes the mould rigid.

its quite easy once you know how. the materials are from make-up/movie set artist supplies.

pm me if you are attempting this. i can mould intricate men holding swords over their heads in one piece.

eyebrows are ten times easier.

Still no luck finding these. I'm on a waiting list at AHS. Flight deck solutions will be making these, but they are not available yet. I would consider them making them myself, but I think it would be more trouble than it's worth in the long run. I may build my pit without eybrow windows then add them later when I can grab a set of moldings. Anyway, I think there are version of the 737 w/o eybrow windows, but I think they look very interesting and distinctive and I will absolutely have to include them at some point.

I know of at least 1 aussie airline that has 737 w/o eyebrows.
Virgin Blue has both types.

But even without the 'eyebrow' glass they still have the mouldings inside...

So we still need them - trying to make the best of it with some wood until a mould is available...

You are correct. Every photo I have seen of eyebrowless 737's still has the molding inside. Some flight sim supplier should make these and crank them out. I'm sure they would sell really well.

Too right! I'd buy some so I wouldnt have to do what I am trying to do today - make something that is "close" out of straight edged wood - today may be a wasted build day...

I know you are looking for mouldings for the eyebrows but this guy made an exellent job out o wood.
