I’m up to scratch building grab handles/steps and yes everything you see in the photo below is essential to the process including the syringe needles. Not shown is the blue air when I accidentally stab myself!
This won’t be quick

I’ve started on the cleanup process. As of tonight 20 down and 52 to go. Yes that it is 2 rows of 10 on the top. And yes very OCD of me!
Nearly completed to be ready to paint

More work today and so mainly the pads left to clean up.
The underside steering mechanism is finished.
Gotta Love Easter
April 10, 2020
Well the 4 day holiday part at least. Apart from a good long walk have spent a fair bit of time on the Raumer. After a bit of sanding and dry fitting I got the second box in and am now firmly in Stage 7. More parts cleanup to go but nearly up to the last page.
Mind you there are 72 pads with 3 attachment points each to clean up as the last bit before completion so I may need a nice long movie for that stage!
Quick Update
April 7, 2020
More images from my work last night. Up to Stage 6 of 9 already although one bit is fighting me a little.
Production Line
April 3, 2020
The Raumer is proceeding nicely. I’ve started production lining the assembly of this kit which is something that armour lends itself to. It’s certainly not something that you can do with aircraft.
With the long two minute commute downstairs to my garage there has certainly been more modelling going on despite carrying the same workload as before.
I managed to sneak in a little two hour session tonight. All of the pieces on the tile were cleaned up tonight ready for some assembly tomorrow.
