Thanks mate just what I needed now I just have to figure out how to make all the bits hinged. I know why revell didn't as the bits are too heavy for any kind of plastic hinge to last very long. Ken's the name modeling's the game.

Hi Ken If you have a look on historex agents and do a search on hinges there are 3 photo etch sets of working hinges by aber that might be of help. Not saying you can only buy these from historex so by all means check other sites as you might get a better deal. http://www.historexagents.com/#product-gallery
Happy Modelling

Hi all here's another update, I thought I could improve this bit so I cut the moulded on straps off and made some of my own   Then I thought to myself I can improve on that too.  I do think my bench is getting quite full (and this is not all I'm working on)  Here's an assortment of the accessories so far made for this.  Ken's the name modeling's the game.

Hi all well thanks to Eddie Mc Vea and his pics here is the next update, I've added the missing cap holders to the hose clamps   There is actually loads of missing detail from this bit and I'm not sure I have the skill to add it but I may try (see if I can work up the courage)   Ken's the name modeling's the game.
