eh up all.
i`ve been doin abit more on my old buzzard this week.
firstly i made up my 16 LED`s for the landing lights.
next i made some caps for the LED`s to sit on,which go on the tubes in the model,but before i could mount them i had me level up the tubes which i started by using my mini files but i took too long so i ended up using my dremel with a circular disk in the middle of the tubes and used the edge of the disk to grind it down all the way round at once.
once they were mounted i started to knock up some rings for the cable to run through with abit of plumbers pipe.and the last thing i did was to go in my shed with my mobile as a torch to find some cable,and the old hoover got it,a sacrafice for the greater good!!but i`ve not told the wifeyet(gum shield on standby!!)
i`ve put some images and i`ll post again once i get it wired up and the lights are working................cheers peza
