You will not defeat me!
Well, after taking a break (and a little shopping at Wycrail) I have revisited the Yellow Peril and this time it was successful
The 1mm copper wire was first shaped and checked against the dome until I was happy. A flat filed in the side and 0.5mm hole drilled through. 0.45mm brass wire soldered in place and the joint cleaned up.
I then cut the wire off almost flush with the joint and filed it flat to make a suitable location to cyano on the handwheel section salvaged from the previous attempt.
A couple of holes drilled in the loco and it fitted just right
Just needs a quick paint and then final fitting.
Keen eyes will notice the Falcon Figures fireman also installed in the cab. Will need to buy a new smokebox dart at Warley on Saturday to fit in the evening ready for Barry O to help me weather it down on Sunday ......
