I'm with all, looking good. That's an interesting control column grip on one of them too.

Didn't think about that, looks almost like the one that you'll find in a Spitfire. 
I screwed up and posted this on the wrong thread. I meant to post it on what's on the workbench. You guys are correct about the control yoke. The swiss installed the English style control column with the round grip at the top of the yoke on their Emils that they recieved in 1939/1940. And yes I will will resize the photo's next time. This was my first ever attempt at putting pics on the web. What is a good size for the images anyway?

Looks good mate! I'd say those sizes were pretty much on the money

Very interesting info, GS. I didn't know the Swiss had modified the control column grip, thanks. As for picture size, Wojtek normally reccommends 800 x 600 as about the largest. Don't worry, we've all been there... I certainly have... when it comes to posting stuff!

Not a purchase as such, but this list might help in future ones from Hasegawa...

Here's some more for the 109 lover! amarc.dk - Hasegawa 1/48 Bf109 kit overview

I reckon some 0.5mm, 1.5mm and maybe 2mm would cover most of what you might need Karl.
Hi guys just got the czech model F80C shooting star and for a limited run kit looks pretty tidy you get three decal options resin parts photo etch parts and film instruments no locating pins though so may be fun to get aligned .It also has a colour decal sheet and very very fine engraved lines and a nice clear canopy should be fun to build .OH a word of warning you will find yourself getting billed for customs duty and import tax on this one because they use FEDEX .BB
I agree with Terry.But all drill bits of 0.1mm-5mm are very useful.Of course these of 0.1mm-2.0mm the most.
See if you can find a set like this one!

Wayne's just reminded me - Model Hobbies do sets of assorted drills Karl, as well as other pin-vice tools, plus a load of other useful tools. You'll find them all in the..er...tool section! BUT! Try a local hardware or engineering store first, as they could well be cheaper there. Anything to do with modelling is a bit like anything to do with weddings - the price is always higher for the commodity!
cheers guys, just found a discount shop that,s doing tiny drill bits for 59 pence each
Be careful with the small ones they can break easily or the carpet monster eats them if you drop 'em!
But it's true.

So true - next stop, a shop that sells magnets! Good to know you've found a cheap supply Karl.
