Kris B Posted September 24, 2017 Author Share Posted September 24, 2017 Cheers lads. Now I've done the most complicated PE in my whole life. The top of the funnel. It is not perfect. The major problems I had was the very fragile brass which Trumpeter offer. Sometimes even bending the metal to the position it has to be cause snapping it. At the end I almost builded it from single pieces. For me it is great success anyway. Hope get some experience for the second one. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It even not the wooden deck. It is paper photocopy of it as the original wooden is too big (as I was supposed) and this one will be a template to trim the wood to the right size.
