Thank you very much!
It's hard to believe that's 1/48--it is far more detailed than my 1/32 WNW model of the same aircraft!
Bob I swear, that's 1:48 as all my bi- and triplanes
The plate on the engine cowling is so small that I would have difficulty seeing that with my eye loupe (magnifier)!
Stephen I must admit, that this was not foreseen as own part on the Parts PE set. It was attached to the cowling ring. But since I had the appropriate dark ring form the kit PE already on I cut the plate from the ring to mount it alone.
Ich liebe es Frank !
Vielen herzlichen Dank Terri!
Frank, your ability to hold and work on such tiny pieces amazes me, Be very nice to your fingers.
For those parts I use a very small "Zeckenpinzette" - Tick tweezers? I don't know, if the one in the picture is also that small, but the layout is comparable.

Is that engine cowling plate upside down?
Today I tried to mount the wings, so I had to do a lot of preparation with drilling holes for the rigging.
After the middle wing was glued in place, I noticed later with dry fitting the upper wing, that the middle wings are sitting to low
Since the mm was missing below it increases the distance between middle and upper wing about the same amount, so it was immediately noticeable if one look at it.
What did my math teacher used to say? "Symmetry is the aesthetics of primitives." So I broke out the middle wings again.
One step forward, two steps back.
Cheers,
Frank
