Thank you for stopping by Giuseppe, Edo, Ken, Rick and Terri for your comments AND all those of you who just looked - that is ok too!
Your attachment of the control wires to the elevator came out exceptionally well. I like the results.
Kudos for making your own prop. Same method I use.
One thing, though. Don't try to economically evaluate and justify your hobby purchases! Just appreciate what you can accomplish!
It wasn't really an effort to justify the purchase financially... but you're right about the fact that one should be happy with the results regardless of ambition, skill and amount of machinery used.
The propeller has been given a few more clear coats and I might be able to post pictures of a finished model soon. Since I've painted the model semi-flat (gloss), do you think I should do the same to the propeller?!
