mozart Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 You may or may not wish to adopt my strategy Shawn, though it worked for me.......once I'll got the relative positions of all the bits sorted like canopy, bulkheads etc. and drilled out the openings in the canopy for the barrels, I didn't secure the base of the Schrage Muzik assembly to the floor. This made getting the angle of the barrels less critical because there was limited movement available, a little wriggle room if you like!!

Shawn M Posted February 4, 2019 Author Share Posted February 4, 2019 FOR SURE Max, I think you're solution allows the best chances for success back there without ruining both canopies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn M Posted February 10, 2019 Author Share Posted February 10, 2019 Hey guys, Im gonna drop out for awhile. Going through a divorce at the moment, not really feeling the modelling ju ju. I should pick this back up once all the drama, moves, etc are done. I wi;; be stopping by and checking in, but this build is boxed up for the foreseeable future.

The final piece if the jigsaw in mine is being put in place in the next week or so with the house sale finally being finalised. Strangely for me if life is throwing crap my way I always head to the bench as I just get lost in the build and forget about what's going on in real life for a while. Looking years to seeing your G-4 back on the bench soon! Regards.Andy Edited February 10, 2019 by monthebiff Shawn M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So sorry to hear this Shawn, I can understand why you can't concentrate on modelling with all this going on in your life so you're doing the wise thing. You'll come back to it eventually refreshed, relieved and raring to go. All the very best with the future. Shawn M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
