shes looking great Karl, as for the chainwales, i think since the rest of her is in authentic colours then mine will be painted, i am now almost in a panic to see whether i have positioned them correctly so they fit (not that i am quite there yet)

nicely done Karl.

As far as uploading direct, I use that method, but always turn dow the reolution on the camara to .3mega pixels, otherwise they end up too big which is why I think you get the download image box.

Come on you Jimmies

I've made the centre pin rails differently then the instructions,drilling them slots was too much of a lottery,so I did them this way,easier for me.
for any who wants to know the dimensions here goes.I used :- 3x5mm.x1mm.x20mm. 2x5mm.x1mm.x10mm. and 2x5mm.x1mm.x7mm. which leaves a slot of 3mm.x1mm.
