discussion She's airborne

Finally got the KC 135 hung up. These little hooks hold approx half a kilo so more than strong enough for the job

 

[Geoffers]

Looking good Kaci

Just be careful with those hooks if they are the ones with an adhesive pad, they can lose their adhesion in a hot room.

Geoff.

 

[kacitgirl]

I've also added a bit of extra adhesion to them

 

[HAWKERHUNTER]

Looks good in the air Kaci. It really is an impressive model.

 

[flyjoe180]

That will make a good talking point for visitors Kaci

ohh deffo

 

[Tim Marlow]

Looks good. Got a great kids bedroom vibe going on there. Not sure I’d trust the hook though. The adhesive may well be fine, but the artex underneath it could come off….. I’d go for a cup hook into a plasterboard rawlplug myself…..

 

[kacitgirl]

Unfortunately my ceilings are solid concrete I actually rubbed it down under the hook and a spot of epoxy too

Can anybody guess what happened here?

 

[kacitgirl]

It wasn't the hook. The thread snapped at the front. It nosedived splitting the nose open. Breaking an engine off an undercarriage door off sooooo it's repaired but think I will buy fishing line and actually drill the ceiling and fit rawplugs and hooks

 

[boatman]

OH Kaci so sorry to see this happen this quick what you are now goin to do is very wise
