Actually Ian i never thought of using my blow torch.Got one i use for the occasional plumbing task around the house.What i did was put the antenna close to a spot lamp i use for modelling in my shed.The light has a 50 watt bulb and gets quit hot.Handy for keeping my hands warm whilst modelling in the shed during winter!..It worked fine.But probably due to the beer i drank earlier in the evening,i held the model at the wrong angle and too close to the light!.I cant repeat the names i called myself.But some of them began with the letter T and w .. And ended in 'er,!!.Im affraid to say i havent learned my lesson.Just been drinking more beer whilst assembling the cockpit of a Zero!.

Dave glad to hear I'm not alone drinking and building! I even gauge drying times by pints !

Many years ago when i was in the RAF,a modelling chum of mine used to be partial to the occasional joint.He got stonned one evening and decided to continue building a stuka.In the morning when the effects had worn off ,he noticed he had glued the wings on upside down!.

LMFAO ?.Im afraid thats got lost in translation somewhere over the Atlantic Trey!.No doubt its something too rude to post on a family forum?!.I can probably guess at some of the words.
