[Wayne Little]

Nothing done today, surprise visit at work by my baby brother....didn't even know he was back in town!

Anyway, yesterdays work...cowling sections joined together around the engine, this was not an easy fit either fair bit of fiddling to get things sitting right, then I painted the ignition wiring silver and superglued the seams which were rather ordinary and started the sanding process...

 

[Vic Balshaw]

I've seen some seam's like that recently. Doing a good job Wayne.

 

[Wayne Little]

I find the bigger ones much easier to deal with, and there were some gaps!....Thanks Vic!

I love it, Wayne!

 

[Wayne Little]

Thanks Very much Gentlemen!

Now what has slowed this one a bit is restoring the slightly heavy rivet detail to keep the whole thing consistent, so here is part of that process, don't have one of them rivetting wheels so all done individually with a very fine drill or my trusty scribing needle lined up with some strips of tamiya tape....

 

[meatloaf109]

Tedious, but satisfying!
Looks great!

 

[Crimea_River]

[ccheese]
