Little more progress on Sir Jackie Stewarts Tyrrell 002. Ebbro makes fantastic quality kitsets! Hoping to have this one done this week to move onto the next one 😀
Consider it DONE..
– Cheap Revell kit in 1/24; was given as a present from my brother, ten years ago

Wood glue gives you time to fiddle with the seatbelts & if you screw up like touching the glue on the seat, you can wipe it off with a damp cloth or q-tip. Easy. CA on PE. Don’t bother with plastic cement except for interior to underside bonding. Also, wood glue on clear parts.…[Read more]
