I never knew there was a great variation in schemes and add on to the original V-2. 

 

It will be an impressive display.

Just found this today (linked from your RFI). Excellent work!

I like the blue andonized tools you use for milling - what is this?

Hi,

I bought it from UMM-USA

 

Here is the description

 

UMS11 Adjustable ANGLE Gluing Jig
[UMS 11]

$28.95 $22.99

Adjustable Angle Gluing Jig:
Designed to facilitate difficult gluing challenges, this tool provides a stable platform to keep separate pieces at a specified angle while the glue dries.
Made from polished aluminum, the back plate has precise angles measured through 180 degrees in 1 degree increments.
The support base is a bar, also of polished aluminum, as is the moveable support arm.
Model pieces can be secured in place with clamps, tape, or even your fingers.
Simply set the moveable bar at the desired angle, place the separate pieces on each bar and apply glue.
This works particularly well for multiple pieces of the same angle; i.e. hinges on doors for auto,armor, and ship models; hinges for aircraft panels, flaps, and cockpit pieces.
Also, this handy jig doubles as a tool for bending soft metal or wire to any angle.
