Vince I think you have to be a mason to get the cap lol. Those compressors are perfect for our large hobby, mine came with everything that you can see for under £80! John you have a posh handle on yours? 8)

You mean the Chinese clone of an Iwata pistol airbrush? Wasn’t going to pay the £167.00 the original cost Haven't used it yet but does feel nice in the hand. 👍🏻

G'day Phil,

I purchased the same radiator set as you are working on and must say that for the price I paid I wasn't to happy with the quality. To me if you pay a high price you get high quality with minimal requirement of cleaning and modifying to fit properly. I purchased some tiger 1 turret stuff also sub-par quality who I didn't name , but will next time if sub standard items are received again. It''s mainly the resin stuff.

I'm happy to name them in pm if anyone is worried about what they are about to buy.

Hi Phill, great job.
I don't know if I understand correctly, I don't know English,
you say you have no designs for installing radiators, if they respect the scale, they should adapt well to the pipes of my engine that I saw you have. Maybe these photos can help you. I remind you that there were cover plates on the fans. I hope you understand what I've written and been helpful to you. Ciao!

Thanks for that Ivano, any help will be gratefully received as it's ultimately all got to work with your beautiful Maybach! We do have a hand drawn sketch from the seller but please post as much as you can, I will need to reverse that lower left fuel tank like you said and detail accordingly, I'm going to struggle with the lower radiator pipes as the rads have needed to be lowered but I will sort something out I'm sure. 8) ....Phil.

Beautiful build Phil. Awesome details. Wish this T1 was coming to me! Inspirational build for us Tiger builders. Can't wait to see the camo paint go on. You are taking this one to the stratosphere. Thanks for posting the details of the build.
Best regards,
Bob

FANTASTIC build, some really great details added.

I do have one question about the side fender at the rear - How far down should it be.
This is what I did on mine.

And this is why I did it.

Anyone have any other photos showing this area?
