Brilliant work, Martin!  The interior and engine look fantastic.  It's a shame that the engine is now completely invisible considering all the work you put into it.
Cheers,
Bud

    I echo Bud's comments Martin, however you know it's in there and it is a great job! Very unusual subject but a real addition to your collection. Looking forward to seeing the finished product! 8)

First I work with Green Stuff on the glue edge.
Here are my first eylets formed from thin brass wire.

Such a pity for all your work on the inside Martin, but we all know it's there is it not? Vey nice eyelets. Keep up the great work.
