Heat makes slow progress but progress does at least mean moving forward! So much for the philosophy in this heatwave and lets get back to the current project of finishing off the Panzer Ferry kit. I knew the brass etched parts would be an issue and so it came to pass as I lost one of the parts that goes onto of the stanchion and into which the guard ropes are attached. I did try to find the part, one moment is was there the next gone never to be found! So it was a case of making a part. I did try a few things but settled on making an oval of wire that whilst it looks rough close in will look OK once fitted as these parts are tiny.
I also got the various ropes that fasten between the stanchions cut to size and the etched brass clips fitted.
Hopefully as it cools off weather wise some of this may move on a bit quicker or maybe I am just getting slower the older I get!
