I,m baack





An amazing trip and one I will do again I feel but back to real life :(
A good day with a good compliment of troops onboard.Frame 10 is progressing well with the webs being joined and holes being drilled off.A new set of coaming skins have been cut (thanks Steve and John Mark)and put aside.Also lengths of bracket material for the lower longerons have been cut and getting ready for bending.They will be then trimmed to length for each individual frame.
Also arriving is photocopies of the spitfires placards from a mate over in Perth (Darryl your the man!).These are being cutout by Neil and Tarryn.No pics today,camera still recovering from overuse in NZ :)Might have to retire her.But a few 3D Design screenies might take away the pain..
Till next time.

I'm making a spade grip for an 80% Mk I Spitfire replica. Can you help me obtain either the 2D drawing or a CAD model of the grip, brake lever, and button? Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
