very nice woodgrain and interior detailing, Przemol.  Thinking 'outside of the box' helps overcome difficult situations (the seam).

Wiring, IP, and painting are top notch and it is looking great!

Thank you, my friends.

Putting the bits together, dryfitting inside the nacelle. All looks fine, now for the seat belts and 26 internal rigging lines and it will be ready to be closed for good. And then the final touch of the seam behind the pilot 😉

Thank you, I am glad you like this Fee.

The internal rigging and seatbelts added, the nacelle buttoned up.

Amazing work, Przemo! It looks just beautiful! I couldn't even consider doing internal rigging like that - yet you make it look so easy! I will follow carefully, and maybe learn a little more! Regards, Marc.

shame to close it up really as the interior is superb, looks like most of it will still be on show though.

Thank you, everyone.
Now with the seam behind the pilot repaired the interior is complete




And now the focus is on early 120hp Beardmore. The mounts for the electric fairleads are modified to be 3-point instead of 2-point. I have also modified the joint position between the part protruding from magneto assembly and the part attached to the cylinder blocks. The cylinder blocks have horrible joint to be filled at the front and the rear, this is now treated, too.




The carbs and intake manifolds piece is enhanced, the air inlets drilled out, the massive control rod between the carbs replaced with a thinner wire piece, also the inlets of the missing water pipes to the carbs added, also some spurious plastic between the intake and the breather pipes passing one by another was remived with a sharp knife tip.



Taurus nuts for the intake manifolds drilled out.



And some treatment of mould push rod marks as well as some bits of control mechanism on the interior sides of cooling covers done.

The interior looks great.  Excellent woodgrain.  I'm sure the detailing on the engine will enhance it immensely.
Seems like the radiator wouldn't get much air back there.
