That engine is very, very well made. How did you accomplish the front rounded part?

hi alex,
very nice build so far. Are you going to modify the wheel of landing gear somehow or is it finished? What I remember from my gathering of materials, smooth tyres were not common on later Thuds, chequered patterns or circumferential slots were used often...

That is probably the most detailed and well built wheel wells I have seen. Warm congratulations. In particular I appreciate the extra layers of stringers, and the small strips of aluminium foil to mimic polished steel parts in the hydraulic landing gear. - L.
