This was another reason for the new Compressor, to avoid any variations due to pulsing.

I have not seen any pics yet but the crew could be quite interesting. most manufacturers seem to be taking the etch by section approch i guess to keep the price down, or maximise profits.  “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.”

Hi Andy I saw your earlier post but decided not to go for the book as I have 1/200 scale plans on the way and the 3d book. On another note my MK1 etch set seem's to have gone missing in the post  luckily its fully insured just more waiting. regards Andy Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .
