A quick update. She is all done and Im pretty happy with the finish. The replacement tailwheel arrived, I immediately made a mould and fabricated a replacement. Ive used the "original tailwheel.

I have to take the final shot and submit my entry, waiting for a sunny day to take the shots at this stage. Should happen this weekend

Very nice indeed Michael, well done. If you could get some closer shots for the 'Finished' thread, or crop them to fill the frame, it'll help with the judging.

I also shouldn't worry too much about getting all the main rotor into all the pics either Michael.
