A truly awesome build. Just beautiful!

Marc I am new to this forum and what I see is absolutely unbelievable for me! In my spare time I build WW1 airplanes, but as I see I learn all my life!

Hat off!

Marc,
Excellent build and the wood plank decals really make the kit. As one planning on diving into my first WNW kit soon, I was wondering, what did you use for rigging, especially the turnbuckles? Bob's Buckles or Gaspatch? Homemade? Just curious, because they do look really nice.

Thanks,
Stephen

Your build really came out great. you have one to be proud of there.

Thanks to all so much for all the very nice comments and compliments. I really appreciate them.

Stephen, here is a link to a how-to I put up on my site a while back. This was when I was making my own turnbuckles much like Bob's Buckles. Now I use the gas patch turnbuckles the line is tied to the turn buckle instead of an eyelet. The 4th photo is what you end up with just with a gas patch buckle instead of a homemade one. The fly tying thread is made by UNI, light gray dragged across a dark gray marker to make it darker.
