    Cheers Dave
    Fair point, it’s not nice stuff you’re quite right. you’re getting some great results with FDM looking at your thread in fairness, great work.

      i didn’t have any modern kit then, so it’s all scratch built, even with a crack at (nasty) home-made photo etch!
      Cheers Nick for the pics but why did you not finish the plane as if i build a kit then no matter how bad it is i will build it to completion so was your tomcat a trumpy kit ? an in my opinion your pics build look great

          I seem to have got myself a bit of ‘CAD bloke’ reputation already, so I’ve just put a few (non-CAD!) builds up in the completed sections to try and overcome this grave injustice

          thanks for all the kind comments, welcome and support folks.
