            Keep up the weaving Neil, and you will be a complete basket case! Outstanding work. Quite insane, but outstanding.

                  I'm still spinning from looking at the braid. The backpack is a work of art.

                  Cheers,
                  Richard

                        “Well”, I thought, “you’ve done faces and hands at 1-72 scale, so what’s so scary about a little eagle on a 2mm disc?”

                        So I broke out the Duro and had a go.

                        The bigger one is 2mm diameter, the smaller one is 1.5mm.

                        They are supposed to look like this

                        They’ll do.

                        Next thing is to mould them. I will try a press mould from Milliput for starters, and see how I get on.

                        While I had the Duro out I attacked some of the other insignia

                        And I had another go at the Sabre Briquet hilt, which I wasn’t happy with first time around.

                        Whilst the Duro was out I also finally started work on the 'Flying Scotsman's' kilt, so there will be an update there shortly.
                        Thanks for looking
                        Neil
