HI Again Peter after several tries i got to see the vid an very good it was too an im really lookin forward to see how you fare building this kit as ive never hardly seen that aztekin done proberly but it should look great pity my kit dint have it but i bought my kit when it first came out by polar light an led's were only just begining to come out but that was about 20 yrs ago an be very carefull of how you fit on that massive saucer section as its really heavy an the kits plastic pins wont hold all that so you will need some internal bracein up the neck i used brass box section but really looking forward to this build

Well it's a small start just cutting down the brass tube to size and attaching to the base its hollow as all the wiring will be going to big circuit board housed in the base
