Manni, Rick, Stephen and Andreas - it is great honor and motivation to know you are watching! Thanks.

You get better and better with every kit.
Not always for sure!
On one hand I sometimes make stupid mistakes, for some things I'm a bloody beginner. So  it is easy to get better for a while ;D

Then please reserve the 9/10 of March 2019! On this weekend I will show a big part of my collection in Fürstenfeldbruck (near Munich),
or 28 April 2019 in Wilnsdorf.
If you are in Munich some day please drop me a note to organize a visit!

Cheers,
Frank

This whole thread is brilliant!

Can you explain how you attached the stretchers and PE control horns?

I'm contemplating whether to get a generic fret of PE "stuff" for future builds.

I tend to have problems with things that stand proud from the skin of the model (e.g., control horns) pinging off into the unknown. CA really sucks at holding things on.
