Hi lads

Have done a bit more of the cockpit as you can see.
It all goes together well, but you do need lots of fingers.

Hope you all have a great week

G'day Bo

Its just stretched sprue, gently squashed between two
bits of thin steel sheet, in a small hobby vice. Takes a few
tries to get it right though

Cheers

Wonderful work on the cockpit, Dave.  The control stick is absolutely sublime.
Great work on all the control wires and flat bracing wires.  Very helpful tip about
the squashed sprue.  Looking forward to the nest update.  Hope you had a super
weekend.

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Stunning work on the innards, Dave!  I'll be using yours as a guide when I build mine.
Cheers,
