Hi:

You have done a lot of work with wiring your WWI aircraft, do you have an opinion of which of these sets are better or easier to work with?
Thanks,
Matt

Hi Matt , both sets are equal in the easy of usage , but I would go with the Part set . The turnbuckles have to be folded giving them more depth then the Eduard PEset and the Part Set has more on the fret . The Eduard ones you can double them up just depends what your preference is . Most of my I make from scratch but I do use both sets as well . You can always apply white glue with a small brush to get more roundness on the parts , but I never had good luck with this with out making the look pregnant .

Thanks Stephen and Terri for posting this. I've been looking for turnbuckles for some time. Ordered the Part set. I'm looking forward to giving them a try.

A little off the subject, but I read a post about "turnbuckles" here. I can't remember who posted, but I think it was jackflash. I contacted Bob's Buckles (bobsbuckles.co.uk) and ordered some turnbuckles. I ordered them on Mar. 23, they shipped on Maar. 24, and I received them on Mar. 26. Bob is in the UK, and I am in California. Great service, and he thanked me for mentioning that I was referred by Kitmaker. Fine turnbuckles, great service...thanks for the referral, Jack,

Matt

No worries Matt. Bob has been a good fellow ever since we met.
