It is indeed a good looking model, and done with the usual skillful GB flair!

This is a very enjoyable and informative build thread, Duke of Duco.

". . . and then the whole plane just jumped together" is a nice touch.

Like the old instruction in the stick and tissue kits for some very complex part: "Sand to shape." Yeah.

My models tend to jump out of my hands and assume strange and undesirable shapes, but I keep on reading your build threads and gazing at the pictures and thinking, "maybe . . . some day . . . with enough practice . . . "

You set a high standard, but also make me want to keep on trying.

Don

Sorry, Don, but I guess that I didn't take any pictures of the wrapping of wings and assembly of the plane... But how hard can it be to put together a couple of pieces like that?

I do remember that on the wing end of the struts for the floats there are four little kind of half curved pieces that sit, two a side, in the angle between wing bottom and strut. These are actually shaped to fit each individual position but I screwed it up and got confused and jammed them in the wrong spots. I also seem to remember thinking that the whole strut to pontoon fit was difficult for me at the time but don't remember why. It was still a fun kit to build.
