Dads203 Posted September 3, 2015 Author Share Posted September 3, 2015 Added the weld seams along the holder from the Archer resin printed decals, this was a sample set from Archer themselves. The press studs have been added for the canvas cover as well. I've also altered the mount for the box on the commanders cupola. Cheers Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derbyeomanry Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Are you using a tip on the soldering gun or just the bare flame. How about clean up prior to painting for the soldered bit - great work by the way. Ive got a Dremel gas soldering gun - great tool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about clean up prior to painting for the soldered bit - great work by the way. Ive got a Dremel gas soldering gun - great tool Bare flame on the lowest setting, too hot cooks the solder paste, as for clean up I use a fibre glass brush and some green Scotchbrite.
