Thanks

Looking good Mark I take it you have a PE bender?and what are some of ya'lls preferences?I am looking at RB's F-10 ATTM.

 

I have a PE bender from mission models but thinking of buying a new one from RP tools

Hey Mark.  I used that PE set on my build, you will want to watch out when you attach the tail section. The PE part interfered with the fit on my kit.  It looks great so far, excited to see this get built

 

 

 

 

Matt  :frantic:

Thanks for the warning :thumbsup:

PE is looking good, Mark!

For bending tools, also check out The Small Shop (  www.thesmallshop.com ). I use the little 2" and the 4" tools for nearly everything, they work great.

Thanks for the link.

I think i will go for the ones from rp the are net week on a model convention so i will save the postage cost for a model :hmmm:

 

Just catching up Mark. Good show mate .....Harv  :popcorn:

 

Tanks Harv

Foiled? Wow! That's some project! I'll be watching for sure!!!

Yes foiled i have some epierince so i hope this will look good

 

Mark I'm glad to see you back to modelling ! You have not chosen a quick and easy build ! (not that the kit is not good, but it is huge with a lot of parts !)

Yes i know not a fast build but i have time and with all the PE i have to read the instructions a few times.

From the moment i have the kit in my hands a little voice went in my head build me,build me :mental:
