Hi, Well this week was my daughters birthday, my sister in laws birthday, my parents wedding anniversary and I've had an RAF function to attend so things have been a bit crazy but everything went well so that's the main thing, anyway on with this weeks issue which I went though this morning Issue 33Fuel Tank Bottom Plate Battery Box Cover The bottom Fuel plate went on fine, but I do find the battery cover is a really stiff fit, putting in is fine but taking it back of again needs bit of force which might end up breaking it so I'm going to leave it alone until the time comes to add the batteries. Thanks for dropping in May. MFG attached the following image(s):

did you find the battery cover a bit tight to close may, i uesd a modelling knife to scrape a bit of plastic so it fitted better, was a bit worried the plastic clip would break.

Hi, Yes I did Steve, thanks for the tip I'll do the same with mine Closing it was ok'ish but getting it back out again needed a bit of force I was worried I might break a nail Thanks again May.

Hi, Issue 34
Cassis Front Upper Reservoir Before making a start with this weeks tasks I christened one of the sanding sticks I've been making in preparation of starting the Constitution build and took a tiny bit of the edges of the battery cover so that it fit much better and I don't break anything.....thanks go to Stevegbr for that tip On with this weeks issue then, the orientation of the Reservoir wasn't all that clear in the magazine so it was Stevegbr to the rescue once again and I used the pic below from his diary for reference instead http://forum.model-space...amp;m=251615#post251615
The front plate went on easily enough but I am somewhat intrigued as to what the large circle cut out might be for, anyone know? See you next week May. MFG attached the following image(s):
