Does to me too!!!!!! Paul, shame on you.

On a brighter note, the wings are comin along. I've applied my Bondo from the tube with a sculptors wooden tool into the small crazing lines. When dry I'll block sand it down and maybe get a chance to start painting them silver.

Then, oh boy, the fuselage. I haven't posted detail pictures of the fuselage yet. The tail is good, but the rest is gonna be a big a$$ headache.

Thanks for that, both of you.

I'm finishing up the wing for the Connie, smoothing joins, fixing misalignments and stuff.

I have found if I have a bit of baking soda at the ready on a small pallet knife, then flood a hole with this CA and tip the BS on the top and press it in lightly with my finger tip it will set quick and fill. Sanding can be done in about 15 min time.

Give it a test, see how it goes for you, and let me know.
 
Been slacking on everything with Annie on sghool holidays.
Managed to get back in the groove last night and this a.m. and have severed the control surfaces from the tail.
Just have to round the backs and make some hinges then on to the ailerons and flaps.

And this is why major decisions should be made Before gluing the wing pieces together!
Because it was decided by others to have these planes in flight, and mine to have flaps down........... I've had to hog the kit "flaps" off the wings to insert the flap parts of the 60 dollar update kit. Now I have to repair the too big hole around the resin insert and the trailing edge of the wing at the flaps. Not to mention cutting out the ailerons!

I blindly sailor on.
