Hi Laurie, it's a roll of the dice getting the flimsy resin parts separated from a giant solid blob of a base...........for this reason I generally avoid resin kits if possible. Good luck with this and hopefully you will have better results as you go. Rick H.

Good work on this Laurie. Canโt help with the resin ring though. My only suggestion is a finer saw so it puts less stress on the part....Comment

Thanks Tim. So difficult to hold this part as it is tound & so small. Get my wife to do it I think. :hungry:Comment

Have you tried blue tacking it to the bench? It wonโt hold it rigid, but will help support while you saw. You will have to remove the part, turn it, and stick it back down, to cut all the way around.Comment

. Used C/A on resin casting back plate glued to a bit of plastic out of the "may come in handy" box.
Piece all intact & took 10% of the time on the other one.

It always happens a big spanner in the works as I have started to accelerate (vintage style).
Suddenly noticed the missing bit. The laugh is one set of decal pictures shows the RAF version. No wedge. The second picture with decals shows it with the wedge.
