The first few items of progress before I go out for a beer.

I have soldered up the the chassis using the 00 spacers provided in the kit and have modified the cylinders slightly by turning the glands in the lathe and drilling them to accept the Markits machined crossheads .

I decided to do this to reduce fettling time with the lost wax items provided.

I'm just now setting up the alignment of the motion brackets and position of the cylinders before starting on the footplate, more to come tomorrow as I'm off to the pub now....:wacko:

Ah I see you are using big boy's tools - well beyond the scope and space limitations of the average kitbuilder - and with that, even using superior quality parts to supplement the build

.... isn't that cheating just a tiny bit ;)

Hardly a case of built as intended in the instructions. :D
