[ChrisR]

Very nice build!

What's not to like? Very well done!

BTD,

I'd like some info on how you got that thread, fender welting to look so good. Is it held-down using super-glue or some other adhesive? By the way; an excellent build; looking forward to your future-postings here... welcome!

Regarding the welting, I just (a few minutes ago) added a tutorial called "Another use for thread"

I'm still learning how to function on this site and hope this link will take you there directly.

This may have been your first post, but after seeing how well this build turned out, I hope there will be many more. Welcome to our board!

Beautiful build! Nice job on the woodwork, and the open cowl vent is a nice touch. Great work!

Thanks Ace, for the compliment on my '40, and it's nice to be on an adult forum once again.

Nice looking model and welcome. We act like adults around new members I just read your thread tutorial and I will be trying that on a couple of replica stock builds soon. I might use fly tying silk to slightly reduce the texture, but I love the idea. I hope to see many more of you models and tips here.

Again, Welcome!
