Do I detect a small bit of PE action the the rear hull sir? Jeff, he just replaced the tow cable hooks with scratch made brass or copper wire ‘cause the kit parts are to scale and that makes them flimsy. I did the same thing on my build too. Keep at it Gary, keep at it, go bro go! See Gary build!  |

Eddy, you are correct sir....exactly!!! The Copper wire is the same dia. as the kit part but the kit parts were so flimsy, i broke one snipping it off tha sprue. Thank gentlemen, Gary |

Now we are on to the real story of your workbench Gary! Either way it's looking nice and clean (the build that is!) so far, keep it up! Don't know why Dragon thought that the tiny little mount posts on those tow hook holders could actually support anything...especially given how springy/stiff the wire is they provide for it! |

Tracks look damn good! Great process... catching up here as you know why. Am afraid I won't have another chance to log in for next four days when we head to Wyoming tomorrow.
