Next MG is in the works.
The seat is finished. The belts come only when the seat is in the frame.
The steering column is mounted.
Cheers
Martin

Outstanding work, Martin!  I never would have imagined that balsa would make such a beautiful and realistic seat cushion.  Brilliant!

Thank you very much Bud.
I think balsa wood comes near leather with the structure with some work.

Greetings for your work updating the old Revell triplane! The Spandaus are specially impressive.

Just one note you might consider before gluing your seat: Fokker seats backrests were made from canvas covered aluminium sheet, not wood. I think it's better to know it now that you can still fix it easily.

Best Regards,
Beto
