Eagle standard
#1
Hey guys, i know im always full of questions, but Im wondering where most groups get their eagle from? Is there somewhere that supplies these? or is it something groups make / Have made for them? I have a medium sized brass eagle, but it looks crap, and would need work done to it, so just wondering what our alternatives are

As always, thanks for your time Smile

Most groups have made their own, maybe with the help of bought parts.

But there're some suppliers for:

Sometimes those brass eagles, Lucius, are not really brass. The main metal is "pot metal", whatever that is, which is then brass plated. So if you do much reworking, you'll end up having to replate the whole bird.

Just a caution. Find an area that won't show and make a deep scratch before you proceed.
