Dave,
    I add a lot of scratch built components to my builds and really enjoy the challenges there; having said that my results fall well short of yours. Comments/info on the materials used, adhesive(s), and techniques for the Scharf Ring and mounts, Norman Sight assembly etc. on the Lewis's, Photo Plate Charger and Lucas Generator would be great. Your work is spectacular and there's lots to be gleaned from it for all of us. Tall order I know, but any "how to" you can spare the time for would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers, :)
Lance

Wings and things
Finally got them on, and even although it was fiddly and
nerve racking, it looks not too bad.
Cheers

Dave, this is currently my favorite build on the site.  I love it.  Fortunately for me, and thanks to you, WNW has announced plans for a post-war Ninak.  Yay!
Cheers,
Bud
