I'm just hoping that the light at the end of the tunnel won't be switched off before I get there !
Thanks for the comments and encouragement guys, and I'll post some more pics soon - ish!

 

[Wayne Little]

Give the guy a chance Wayne! He has an appointment with the hardwood floor refinisher guys tomorrow to borrow there sanding machine.

Special Forces never give up. You are my hero this month, Airframes. I'm willing to bet the result will be worth the effort amongst us modeller blokes.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Almost cracked it Terry.................

 

[Wayne Little]

Almost...! The sanding machine will be a great help, I'm sure....

 

[Airframes]

Thanks for the vote of confidence Matt !
I had considered the sander, but I think one of those bl**dy big things they use to scrape and grade road surfaces might be a better option! One problem though, the alien material this kit is made from could wear out the machine.....

Tremendously impressed old boy! I wouldn't have come this far, not even close! Mine would have been in the bin by now...

 

[Airframes]

It has been very close! Amazing what a couple of pints of decent ale can achieve. (OK, quite a few pints !!).
I'm hoping to get some more done tomorrow - I want to ensure that Milliput is rock hard before I start the fine sanding.

I suspect I may have done the same thing.....life is too short...

 

[Matt308]

...and the survey says????

 

[Lucky13]

Where's the latest pics?

 

[Airframes]

In the latest pics box! Nothing to show yet old chap; I'll post some pics when it's all nice and smooth as a baby's bum, and the empennage is in place.

 

[Wayne Little]

maybe a babies bum might suffice in the short term...for future comparrison...!

 

[Lucky13]

Prefer mine as smooth as a beautiful lassies (beep)!

 

[Airframes]

Now how did I know to expect that from you, old chap ?!

 

[Lucky13]

Beacuse you agree?

 

[Airframes]

Well....er....... no, no, no......yes!
