Hello everybody,

and these Mounts were glued today.

At it the most difficult step was pushing the Handrail feet into the tiny mounts, which is why I "sharpened" them slightly. Then the gluing followed with MEK by carefully wetting the mounts with the finest red sable brush (10/0).





This also finished the third Handrail pair,



and could be placed on the template for fitting.



It was finally the turn of the last couple,





whereby the whole set is finally complete.



And in this arrangement, all eight Handrails could soon be glued to the canister, as well as the Personnel door.



So that nothing happens to them until then, I quickly brought them to safety in this little box.



That's it then again.
