Ron,
Couldn't find any of the zig-zag paper
I used regular copy paper rolled over florist wire and painted silver. Key was to bend the wire first and then slide the paper tube over the bend.

Thanks guys.
I have to admit that I considered leaving those exhaust pipes off...
It took me two days to work up the courage to start those pipes, but it was worth it
I just finished drilling small holes in the nose cone to insert front supports for the cowl (note for the future builders - do it BEFORE part is formed - much easier and safer...) - my goal is to achieve something similiar to the photo below.

Definitely well worth it - detail like that on an exposed or semi-exposed radial make all the difference. Well done!

The engine and cowling look great Michael, perfectly mounted, the exhaust pipes are very realistic.

Yep, I'd say you achieved it! Fine work on all. That cowl section is impressive.
