One has to say the parts provided are very very cooperative and handle abuse very well. The most difficult part is not gluing yourself or your tools to the part you are working on really. Decided to continue on while I'm having a run and start a second set of seven issues before I go into pause again. So here's issue 36 (37 will be another set of the exact same parts ). These are the support bridges that will provide the connection between the fuselage and the detachable wings.

It's all superglued. I can't deal with epoxy. I always make a huge mess of things with epoxy. Issue 37 Another set of wing supports is made and all four are test fit to the fuselage.  Issue 38 Work begins on the rear fuselage. 72 nails are shortened and installed on earlier built parts as bolts and buttons.

The holidays finally gave me a chance to work a bit on my metal StuKa. Here's where we stand at building phase 50 out of 140 and one can plainly see why this kit is a bit infamous for going hog wild on assembling way too many small parts before sticking them into the fuselage.

That lot will certainly be keeping you busy  Enjoying your diary, so good to see you back on it.
