"Model 2" Project (AKA On today's episode of the "Stupid stuff I should probably not do files")

[Brendan W]

So, I got to thinking of projects to work on that were siren related, like my never ending Thunderbolt one. Anywho, I was looking at my crusty 5/6 chopper, and I got to thinking "Y'know, it would be pretty cool if I dressed it up as a model 2 and basically used it as a "look at piece"" I already have a couple of model 2 parts, those being that stator ring and an intake cone. From what I was able to figure out, it looks like I need a stator and those "feet" to put it together into a shroudless Model 2/Thunderbolt/Model 2T abomination. My question is, what are my best bets on obtaining these parts? Well, I guess since I typed all of this junk up, I might as well make a little side project out of it.



Here's a picture of everything so that the picture police don't come and mope about "OH MAI GAWD THERES NO PICTURES!!1111"

You have some serious cob webs.

I think you need a stronger bookshelf.

A lamp would be cool!!!! (and maybe slightly possible)

(OT) Is the beige book on the bookshelf The Book Of Enoch?

He's referring to me as the “picture police.” I only asked him for a picture one time and that made him angry for some reason. Back on topic: A 5/6 port Model 2T sounds like a great project.

Last time I checked, you could get stators from federal for about $100. Just call the main number and ask for parts and give them the stator part number.

could I get a thunder bolt Stator/chopper?

No, those parts are not made anymore.

This has been talked about before. You would need to get a 5/6 port stator custom made by a machinist for it to work. If not, Federal still makes the single tone stators new.
