Right, q'pla!
All it took was pushing the blade up under the frame and winkling a bit, and it's done. It WAS definitely stuck at both ends though
Weird
So, the close-in
rigging is in and done and didn't take two hours for the first part wire and an hour for the next three, just the length of a Christopher Eccleston / David Warner x-over Big Finish audio...
And then, the next problem. This can't go on without something going astray
The upper wings are on, yay! Just need a little paint touch up up top, BUUT...
Despite all my careful fettling, dry-fitting, adjusting and whatever preparation, when I actually come to glue the damn thing, the top of the V just breaks off. I'd have expected the port side to go, as that's had the most fiddling about with done on it
What's more annoying is, with the holes pre-drilled, I was going to do the cross-wiring main
rigging before adding the outermost struts, so the latter didn't get in the way. On the starboard side I'm going to have to do the struts to pull the wing down slightly into it's proper place, then add repairs to these broken bits, and THEN rig.
Port side first, I think, as that's settled in perfectly
Still, not far to go now: struts,
rigging, mud-guards, exhaust pipes, then props and done
And then back to No.4, and the Hector
Hmm, is the GB finish the beginning or end of April? Want to get on and do my Thunderjaw next, BEFORE the next GBs!
