That jig looks very helpful for insuring alignment during assembly.

The model itself is gorgeous!

That jig seems to be require as much work as the rest of the model! As Don says, the model is gorgeous.

Those remind me of welding jigs I was working on years ago.Far more complicated than frame made in it.They make thing easier but setting it up just right can be hard.

Friends.

Just I say I started the building of struts, the major have a reinforcement strip with card, i place in position gluing with fast dry white glue, after dry I put wing on the jig and started the connect, Jig is a very helped tool but modeler need small modifications to made jig working, in my case I put a "shoe" of double heavy cardboard to incresase the stability of wing. Note: the jig helped of construction but alligment is need a constant atenttion of modeler...













I made a option to build nacelles later for clarity in to alligment...

Continue soon...

Jig looks great. Some similarity with what it took to build the real thing?
