Youtube video on the design of tooling for 1/24 Airfix Spitfire

A long watch but really shows the technical aspects of modern kit design. I am so glad to see the true enthusiasm the designer has for his craft. I remember the 80's when the plastic mags would lay the parts of a new kit onto long established drawings and see how far off the kits were.

Things have come a long way from the days when a pattern maker carved a wooden master !!
