About product

What the set contains

Seat belts for a model of the four-engined B-17F Flying Fortress bomber in 1:48 scale. The word STEEL in the name sets the material: the belts are etched from steel. How many parts the package holds, which seats they belong to and whether they come in a color finish is given in the enclosed manufacturer's instructions.

Why belts are worth it on a model

Seats in kits tend to have the belts only suggested in relief, or not at all. A metal belt, by contrast, is thin, can be bent over the edge of the cushion and left hanging loose, so the interior stops looking empty. On a bomber that shows twice over, because its inside is accessible from several places at once.

  • Material: steel photo-etch, according to the STEEL designation in the name
  • 1:48 scale, an accessory for a plastic B-17F kit
  • Steel holds its shape once bent and does not spring back

Building and painting tips

Separate the parts from the fret with a sharp blade on a hard surface and sand the burrs away. Shape them gradually with flat-jawed tweezers, bend by bend. They are glued with cyanoacrylate glue applied in a tiny amount. Seat the belts before you close the fuselage, because the seats are out of reach later. Before any painting, wash and degrease the surface and spray it with a primer.

Who it is for

The set is meant for a modeler building the B-17F with open compartments who wants the interior taken all the way. Check in the instructions which 1:48 kit it is developed for. The kit, paints and glue are not part of the delivery, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The scope of the set and where each part goes is described in the enclosed manufacturer's instructions; the name does not settle it.

A steel belt holds its shape once bent, so it keeps its sag and a loosely thrown end, and does not straighten out again.

Before the fuselage is glued together, while the seats are still accessible. Once the fuselage is closed they are out of reach.

It is not. This is an accessory for a 1:48 plastic B-17F kit, which has to be bought separately, unless stated otherwise.
