See, this is why I asked this question here. I like landing gear from
the Eagle for some of my designs. On some of them it's just a matter of
mounting "feet" right to the body. On a couple of ships I need something
like conventional landing gear - folding out into position.

15mm is normally 1-100 scale. 

The effort to make the legs could depend on the design you are going
for. 

Something like a Space 1999 Eagle Transporter could be easier than say a
leg of an Apolo lunar lander. 

If you want to make several that look the same you might need to set up
a template. 

Wire from paperclips and plastic card for the skids might be a good
place to start.

You know I have been considering that very thing. The problem is the
price of the Hind models that I have found. Might have to Ebay a couple.
1/144 is too small but 1/72 seems so huge. Those gunships were pretty
gigantic though.
