Winning at metal work again Peter! 

While I am completely 100% confident my skills will never be as good as those demonstrated here, I certainly do find everything about this build to be massively inspirational. I feel that if you had not started this thread, I might not have had the motivation to push myself to what I have done on the B-17. With each raising of the bar you do, it shows what can be done. Thank you for letting us all witness this masterpiece come to life!

Oh and a quick question, what type of riveting tool did you use for the domed rivets? They look just perfect :)

Any updates on this beautiful project of late Peter?

 

 

Seriously Peter...don't be a looser like me. Updates man! We need em!! :)

 

 

I fear his attention span snapped and he is now devoted to the 1/18 Spitfire.....

 

 

what a welcome blast from the past :)

 

I can tell you this much - the F7F is alive and well, in fact I had a quiet moment unwrapping it and catching up a few weeks ago and actually inspired myself - trust me it is right behind the Spitfire

 

..there is no way I put that much work in, get that close and forget about it

 

she is, and always will be my favourite :)

 

thanks for asking..

 

Peter
