        Thanks Steve, good idea I will add one.

                  Thanks Simon, if your happy as the master of scratch then I'm happy. What do you use for small rivet details as my punch set only goes down to 0.5mm?

                    Just a small update. I replaced the coffer grinder handle with a cranked version. For strength I drilled out both ends and used copped wire to secure the handle and both ends. The hasps were modified and the third one added. I didn't have another etch one so made it out of a bit of evergreen sheet. I also removed the very badly moulded weld beads and replaced then with stretched sprue.

                    On the other end I have added a crank handle which I presume locks the brakes on. This was again added form some flattened copper wire and drilled out both ends to accept a bit of copper wore for strength.

                      I think I'd struggle to even see some of those pieces, never mind work with them! Looks great.

                        Andy, I struggle as well, my big problem is pinging things across the room.

                          Yes, I think I need a cat sat on my desk like wonwinglo has. That might just be fast enough to catch them!

                                Scottie, your detailing makes sense of all those funny little lumps and bumps that had me wondering. Great stuff.
