About product

Photo-etched STEEL belts for the cockpit of the Chipmunk T.20 in 1:48

What is on sale are the harnesses, nothing else from the build of the aircraft. STEEL is a separate form of the straps at Eduard. It is precisely the straps that belong among the elements that hold attention in a cockpit even on a small area, because plastic seats tend to be bare and in 1:48 scale they lack any texture.

Where the belts come into their own

The seats in the tandem cockpit of the DHC-1 trainer are clearly visible with the glazing slid back, so it is the straps that decide the impression of the whole interior. The T.20 form served in foreign military use and its model tends to be built with the canopy open, so that the detail of the cockpit stands out. It is no accident that metal straps are among the most frequently bought small accessories of all, whatever type a builder is doing.

Shaping and attaching

Let the metal belts read naturally: fold them over a blunt point so that a slight curve appears, and let the loose ends hang over the edge of the shell. Bend the buckles step by step, because metal will take only a limited number of movements before it cracks. A drop of cyanoacrylate glue the size of a pinhead is enough to attach them.

Who the set suits

  • builders who are finishing an interior and are missing exactly the straps
  • modelers building a cockpit with the canopy slid back
  • anyone interested in postwar trainers
  • everyone who wants a quick improvement without an extensive rebuild

The seats, the aircraft and glue are not supplied with the straps.

FAQ

They replace the missing harnesses on the seats and give the cockpit a realistic look.

Fold the metal over a blunt point and let the loose ends fall over the edge of the seat.

No, only the belts are supplied. Take the seats from the kit or from another set.

The benefit is smaller, but with the glazing slid back the detail shows fully.
