[/b]Thanks Ken & I was a little impressed myself. Ive attached my template picture for the others to use
. Just print as is & will be the right size.
So Ive set about cutting my styrene. I used 1.5mm. Once I put the pieces on I now believe from the 2 Leopold parts that sit from the bottom & join the top, that the top is at least 3mm. This is because with the 1.5mm piece sitting on top leaves about 1.5mm gap for those 2 parts to sit flush as they should. So I will make the top bottom piece out of 3mm styrene. I need one more Leopold and one more Karl to finish with the engine plate & Butt Plug sections. I only need 2 pieces from the Leopold & 1 part from the Karl
So thats 7 Leopolds & 3 Karls for the engine plate & butt plug sections all up. For now. Doesn't look too bad. Just need the Yamato & Tiger parts & will look ok with some primer on
