    WOW!

    Awesome Tiffy! Great advice and I've been super carefully cleaning up every part and triple checking the fit as I go.

    Is there a link to your build as I'm sure there are gems of tips and techniques to follow and learn.

    I couldn't do that .......................... oh I could 'try' but would end up with a box of very expensive shavings...................... very precise.............. and very sharp.......... I am a little perplexed as to why some of these fairly expensive kits always need , what looks like, a lot of reworking, it's all in the details, and these small adjustments make it museum quality........ I love what you're doing....... looks excellent...

    Thanks Jeff, i didn't really want to chuck money at this kit if i could help it. And to my surprise and a little creative license you can make good a lot of the inaccuracies.

  3. Hi all, this update has had me thinking, many little problems to resolve but nothing to serious....honest. it's the cockpit i'am working on. Trumperter have got the detail in their, but all in the wrong place lmao (how did this happen).As the pictures will show side panels and seat moved forward 4mm. Floor chopped up and put back together in the right places...Detail now being added. Throttle body, taps, pipes, pilots hatch and shelf behind seat ect. Then will clean up and paint. I'am not trying for 100% limited knowledge, but something a little bit closer.
